No one is talking about doing away with auto travel. Just stopping the 32000 people killed yearly. Shouldn't we do whatever we can to stop this slaughter?
Tbh I hate using this type of argument for any case. If we can just save one life isn't it worth it...well no, it may not be so make your argument on something besides a bunch of hand wringing.
