If you already know what's going on, you probably don't need to click any of those links. You can still visit to see if any changes have been made, as that's also where we kept the archives and have a second forum.

#Traffic Safety vs. the War on Terror: A Life-Saving Opportunity We’re Ignoring

By a Coalition of Public Health Experts, Economists, and Urban Planners

Every year, 1.3 million people die in road crashes worldwide—equivalent to eight 9/11 attacks every single month. Yet while governments spend trillions on counterterrorism, traffic safety—a far deadlier and more preventable threat—remains chronically underfunded.

If we reallocated even a fraction of the resources wasted on low-probability terror threats toward evidence-based traffic reforms, we could save hundreds of thousands of lives annually at a fraction of the cost. Here’s how.

---

1. The Staggering Death Toll of Traffic Violence
- Annual Global Road Deaths: ~1.3 million (WHO).
- Injuries: Up to 50 million, many life-altering.
- Economic Cost: ~3% of global GDP lost yearly.

By comparison:
- Terrorism kills ~20,000-40,000/year globally (Global Terrorism Database).
- Post-9/11 War Spending: ~$8 trillion (Brown University).

Bottom line: You are 50 times more likely to die in a car crash than in a terror attack—yet fear, not data, drives policy.

2. What Works in Traffic Safety (But Isn’t Funded Like It Should Be)
Proven, cost-effective solutions exist—they just lack political will:

A. Infrastructure Fixes
- Protected bike lanes & sidewalks (reduce pedestrian deaths by 40-50%).
- Roundabouts (cut fatal crashes by 90% vs. intersections).
- Better street lighting (reduces night crashes by 30%).

B. Policy Changes
- Lower speed limits (cutting urban speeds from 40mph to 30mph reduces deaths by 50%).
- Strict DUI enforcement (saves ~150,000 lives/year if applied globally).
- Vehicle safety regulations (mandating automatic braking could prevent ~20% of crashes).

C. Cost Comparison
- War on Terror: ~$300 million per life "saved" (RAND Corporation).
- Traffic Safety: ~$5,000-$50,000 per life saved (WHO).

For the cost of one F-35 fighter jet ($80M), we could:
- Build 800 km of protected bike lanes (saving ~1,000 lives/year).
- Install speed cameras across an entire major city.

3. Why Does Terrorism Get More Attention Than Traffic Deaths?
A. Fear Sells, Boring Problems Don’t
- Terrorism is rare, dramatic, and televised—car crashes are routine and ignored.
- Media coverage bias: In the U.S., terror gets 100x more news attention than traffic deaths (Harvard study).

B. Political Theater Over Real Solutions
- "Tough on terror" wins votes; "tough on reckless driving" doesn’t.
- Lobbying: Auto/oil industries resist speed limits, pedestrian zones, and transit funding.

C. Misaligned Spending
- U.S. spends ~$100B/year on TSA & homeland security (with questionable effectiveness).
- Only ~$1B/year on federal traffic safety grants—despite 40,000+ U.S. road deaths/year.

---

4. A Smarter Approach: What Governments Should Do
1. Reallocate 10% of counterterrorism budgets to traffic safety (saving ~200,000 lives/year).
2. Adopt "Vision Zero" policies (as in Sweden, where road deaths fell 50% in 20 years).
3. Design safer streets (prioritizing pedestrians over cars).
4. Treat traffic violence like a public health crisis (not "accidents").

---

Conclusion: A Matter of Political Courage
We have the tools to dramatically reduce road deaths today—unlike terrorism, which is unpredictable and hard to eradicate. But because traffic violence lacks the fear factor, it remains neglected.

If we shifted even a fraction of the money, attention, and urgency we apply to terrorism toward road safety, we could save more lives each year than all modern wars combined. The question isn’t whether we can do it—it’s whether we care enough to try.

It’s time to stop fearing shadows and start fixing streets.

Let's hope they wipe each other out. Haven't gotten any scam calls today.
