Er, the trees aren't "killing people," the trees are just sitting there. The drivers are driving dangerously and killing themselves (and their passengers, and pedestrians, and bicyclists, and other drivers, and occasionally a tree or two)...
If there's any action that needs to be taken it's to make people drive more safely. [Part of this, incidentally, is to make roads narrower and less open, e.g., by adding trees, to reduce the impression that a road is "fast".]
- glogla 14y agoYou don't need to drive dangerously (unless "driving at all" means "driving dangerously") to hit a tree, it suffices if someone else does drive dangerously. Most people in traffic accidents are victims, not perpetrators, and I see little point in making victims suffer.
