'Hong Kong warns residents not to kiss pets after dog contracts coronavirus… but says to not worry about doing anything to stop the crazy fast driving style there which kills three people EVERY week, and causes a total of about 20,000 injuries per year.'
It means that in just ONE city car accidents damage the health of more than ALL the people who have contracted coronavirus in Italy, Korea, Iran, Germany, France and Japan combined.
Yet we are doing almost nothing about it.
So, after we manage to get the virus under control, lets have a similar level of global campaign against the killer cars.
Let see cars banned from all streets with schools on them... a ban on anyone buying a big car unless they have a family of at least 4 people...automatic fines for anyone who drives while using their phone, strictly applied every time... automatic removal of license from anyone who drives over the speed limit... a 'eco-tax' placed on companies that concrete over green space to make car parks... a ban on adverts that make cars seem like a symbol of freedom, etc.
Lets really make the world a safer and healthier place.
