    Car accidents are a skill issue. Gun murders are intentional.

    USA doesn’t teach driving anywhere near like other nations do that are serious about motor vehicle operations.

      Our roads are also designed incredibly poorly. They encourage speeding by being too wide, straight, and flat. They don’t have intersections that require people to pay attention (like roundabouts do). They have high quantities of conflict points among people turning, crossing roads, walking, and riding bikes. Add in vehicles that have terrible lines of sight because they’re oversized and it’s a recipe for failure, regardless of the training provided.
