I see crazy drivers every day. I drive through 3 very accident prone intersections twice a day. I also do a fair amount of city driving when I go to college 2 days a week.

I'm married with a 2 year old some and another on the way, safety is important to me. Yes I drive carefully, I have even had smith driving classes but that doesn't protect against crazy scenarios and idiot/drunk drivers.

Personally, give me all the safety equipment possible. On that same token, I do wish cars weighed less. I think with CAFE standards vehicles will get lighter, but the days of 1500lb(700kg) cars is long gone.
