There was a commedian saying cars should be make more dangerous for the driver: "that will teach 'm". He claimed car's driver safety features made them less safe for everyone else, as driving like an idiot had little negative outcome for the driver.
"Put a sharp pin in the steering wheel and forbid belts and airbags." he jokingly argued.
There's quite some truth to it.
