Instead, we're, for some reason, trying to justify that if we ban smoking in cars with children present, we should also ban driving, since both have been proven to kill people?  Semantics Fataing suck!!!!!

Exactly.
I think the posters know that that's not what I or anyone else meant regarding driving not killing people.
We've seen accidents, we've heard of people dying from them.
If you are a reasonable driver and follow the laws set out, the chances of you dying are RARE.
You might die if some ****wad clips you going 220 on Deerfoot... but again, that's him doing something illegal.
You might die because that idiot behind you is tailing you going 95 in a 50 zone, but AGAIN, that's him doing something illegal.
