We also represent a regrettably small portion of the driving population. So with all that said your stunned texting pokemon playing pedestrian is going to die at the hands of many more average drivers driving 'regulation' vehicles any day of the week. Period.
Pletby, I dont disagree with your premise that most of us will be more attentive than Joe Public, but SOME of the modifications put forward are downright irresponsible in my opinion.

Having said that, there is a quote that goes something like:
Opinions are like assholes. Everybody has got one. Some stink and most should not be seen in public.
and it applies to me as much as everybody else.
