Did we solve car accidents yet? I mean, people are working on it with self-driving cars, but we've been paying a death tax for the proliferation of automobiles for something like a hundred years now. Big pile of dead bodies waiting for that one new technological solution... Instead we've been chipping away at the massive set of problems cars created one at a time, because we allowed the problems to appear and we got used to cars. Meanwhile, new problems appear that we can't easily fix - people still look at their phones while driving and that wasn't an issue ~20 years ago.
