There is a clear positive return on those traffic deaths. We live far richer lives because of motor vehicles and what quick private transportation unlocks. I think car centric design is great personally.

We have constantly rising rates of depression, stress and obesity. All things that are partially linked to car usage. We live far richer lives due to a huge array of technological progressions. An anecdote but my life massively improved when I got rid of my car and moved somewhere where walking is my only transport method needed. I'm healthier, happier, and have more free time.
