Uhm, accident rates DO plummet - with ABS and all the other safety
enhancements we have in modern cars. Now what does that do for the

hmmm, the last I looked the rate of car accidents in the US has been
pretty flat (according to statistics pulled from the US National Highway
Transportation somethingorother agency).

Maybe all the evil cellphone usage is countering the safety improvements...
