require all new cars to use sonar/radar to automatically brake when about to have a collision. Save $164 billion.

Created by P.W. on January 12, 2013

Each and every year, over 30,000 Americans die on our roads. AAA calculates that car accidents cost our economy over $160 billion each year.

That averages out to about $1,000 each year out of your pocket, on top of your insurance costs.

Every model of vehicle must have something that works like the Toyota pre-crash safety system on the front and rear of the vehicle.

When a collision is unavoidable, automatically apply the brakes to either avoid the impact, or at least reduce it.

This will pay for itself in reduced costs to the overall economy. Medical professionals will be freed up to help other patients. Body shop labor will move on to creating new products. Businesses will have fewer absentees due to accidents.
