Most of the solution is not being part of the unlucky minority of people taken out by a cager.

AI will go a long way to reducing that tragic minority part.

Saw lots of tragic aftermath on my short commutes to work around midnight. Saw a motorcyclist that didn't navigate an offramp well, and I assume met the guardrail posts.

Saw an overturned pickup on the inside of a near 360 offramp / onramp (cloverleaf I guess you'd call it, except it's just 1 leaf). Fortunately nobody inside by the time I ran out into the field and looked.

Saw the road closure and boots left behind of a girl struck while trick or treating.

Maybe AI will allow humanity to fear the night a little less.
