20. But there are still thousands of dead kids per year

directly due to the use of vehicles.

There are 1,225 kids under 14 killed per year in car accidents, which means that there are still 1,225 little dead kids that died in preventable ways.

Per the CDC:

Age <1----->76
Age 1-4---->343
Age 5-9---->354
Age 10-14-->452


Would you support a nationwide effort to mechanically or electronically limit all cars in the US to 20 mph, with harsh penalties for people that bypass the governors?


Think of the benefits... with cars limited to 20mph, they could be a lot lighter, saving millions of tons of steel and other metals a year.

All-electric cars would become a viable and popular option; no more fossil fuels needed, because most people would do just fine with a 3-4 hour range on their vehicle.

High-speed public transit would become immensely popular because people could no longer effectively drive more than a few dozen miles.

US carbon dioxide production would drop significantly, fighting the global warming that kills hundreds of thousands of people a year, many of them children.
