    im pretty sure the engineering is not at fault for most car accidents.

        What about the chemical engineers creating fuels that turn out environments into toxic hellholds? Where does all of the pollution in the world come from?

      We could use engineering controls to limit the speed of consumer vehicles to 10 mph, still faster than a human can walk, but slow enough that most deadly accidents could be avoided.

      Then establish administrative controls to have public transportation or other professional drivers (taxi operators) have “unlocked” vehicles. They would be required to have routine training and testing to keep their unlocked license.
