Auto makers make safe(ish) cars because they are legally required to.


Exactly... unsafe at any speed was written for a reason.


That's exactly what I meant when I wrote "Auto manufacturers are incentivised much more strongly and in the opposite direction to make safe(ish) cars".

Out of curiousity, what incentive did you think that sentence meant? Should I have explained exactly which incentives led to airbags and ABS?
