...not really trying speak for the "...loose nut at the wheel..." here, but at least there's some chance of achieving UNIFORMITY in safety-products (not users!) by piling on the safety requirement onto the PRODUCT.

...people, however, are obviously NOT so uniform, so starting at the vehicle at least achieves a "starting point" (but not much more).

...safety is like fuel economy...both are influenced/controlled more by the driver than by the product, but at least the product has a "lower" limit (wink, wink).
