Cool, don't disagree. But isn't it more an issue about the physical "tool" being so readily and easily available?
Mental health problems regardless of the source can't do as much damage if such a death dealing tool is within such easy reach. It's like installing a "death ray" button in everybody's car that can instantly kill anybody in another car. Hell, it'll even work if a kid wants to press it. Can you imagine the death rate given the ease of such a tool and the usual amount of road rage?
Looking to solve the road rage is nice and all, but taking away that button seems like a much better idea while you go work on patching some signals/signposts that started the road rage in the first place.
