Those small particles are often used against diesel cars, what is not told at the same time is that gasoline cars emit much smaller particles, so small that particles actually can go trough your skin directly into blood stream and amounts are thousands of times more than those from diesel.
As usually most important is what is not told.
Crash safety is funny subject, how safe is motorcycle in a crash? You can still ride motorcycle same speeds as you can with cars, you can have passengers and even trailer too (albeit a small one), if safety is so important that cars need to have certain level of safety how they can allow motorcycles on roads?
Would it be any different if motorcycles would be used more widely? It is quite economical transportation and great at city where you can see much more and it would help greatly with traffic issues too if most vehicles were motorcycles.
Surely safety is good thing, but I think there is more about it than meets the eye.
Home accidents alone are hugely bigger killer, same for smoking and drinking, traffic is very small in comparision, but in traffic safety has been put on pedestal. There are probably some more than just safety that is reason for that.
There are so many illusions twisting our minds when it comes to safety that when you step back and look bigger picture it seems bit of funny how we are told to seek more safety from our cars and how there are even laws about it and especially how unsafe cars are made as killers, while kitchen knife at kitchen is far more deadly, probably welcome mat has worse record than those cars told to be 'unsafe'.
Modern day news and information is narrow sighted, relativity is forgotten and small things are broadcasted as huge things, which creates illusions, false views to our minds.
Safety is good thing of course, but how much is more than enough?
