I’m not denying that smaller cars are more sane, I’m just saying that no matter what a car that weighs over a thousand pounds, especially at any sort of speed, still has great potential to kill. Motorcycles that weigh less have hit and killed pedestrians.
Indeed - but that’s not the central issue here.
Traffic casualties, like running a reverse casino and deciding which games to include, are a matter of statistics.
Something that will kill you 9 times / 10 vs 4/10 will simply cause less deaths, the same for lesser injuries, less cost on society in general.
I don’t see the value of equivocating the two by ignoring their statistics.
