To the editor:

Automobiles are ubiquitous and an extremely useful part of American life. We love our cars. Because there is an element of danger in these powerful machines, there is universal acceptance of the need to make our use of them as safe as possible. Along with vehicle improvements, technological safety devices and better road designs, regulations such as stop signs, traffic lights, speed limits, licensing, registration and laws regarding DUI and seat belts have saved thousands of lives.
