I will disagree slightly with you Res, if only to make a point to Nicker, far more than 10,000 americans die in road accidents a year, but cars bring so many obvious benefits that we are happy to pay that price.
Also with cars we have set into place a vast number of laws to at least minimise the cost, licensing, registration, car recalls etc.
None of this happens with guns and yet they bring less benefits to a society than pez dispensers as far as I can tell
