Should car companies stop making cars because they profit off of the death of 35,000 people per year in the US?
As a cyclist, I don't see why I should be forced to accept the risk of cars when the companies that profit off this risk won't pay for separate bike lanes.
Everything in life has risk/reward. What is the alternative that is a more palatable risk/reward?
- shkkmo 7y agoI think there is something to the idea that car manufactures should bear some of the cost of the risks associated with the vehicles they sell. When they bear less of the risks to pedestrians, cyclists and the environment, they don't do anything to minimize those risks and even do things to accentuate those risks when doing so will increase their profits.
