I would downvote you if I could because the comparison is certainly not stupid; just because you fear more the will of the others over accidents does not make it stupid.
If for example cars were allowed (mechanically and legally) to only accelerate to maximum 50mph many of those accidents would never happen, but people are not willing to loose their freedom to drive at crazy speeds but somehow they are willing to loose other freedoms for extremely rare events such as terrorism attacks just for the emotional effect it haves over them because it is an attack (and not an accident) with nothing rational backing it up.

That would be much more effective than limiting them to 50mph. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locomotive_Act#The_Locomotive_Act_1865_.28Red_Flag_Act.29 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locomotive_Act#The_Locomotive_A...
