Its a difficult issue. Cars suck for liveable cities, but they're also better at transportation than anything else regarding cost, flexibility and time. They're a piece of freedom, but with high externalities. I can see why the US loves them so much, and why Europe doesn't. I also think it is kind of strange that "number of deaths" is such an important metric for some: automatic safety systems will soon be commonplace in all new cars, so this will naturally converge to zero over time. I'm using car-sharing myself, but finding a car and walking there is very annoying. Wouldn't it be nice if you could summon a car when you needed one, out of a pool that is large enough to never have availability issues?
