Re: Automotive safety features

While the OP is dealing with a nation with a very high traffic fatality rate for the miles driven, I think he is barking up the wrong tree. A large percentage of people can't afford much of a car, or they drive scooters. Also, the country does not have much of a heritage of driving autos or much in the way of infrastructure. Similar problem in China.
More should be done to change the attitudes toward traffic laws and road discipline, as well as improving the skillsets of the existing drivers and riders.
Were all the safety features known to mankind incorporated into the cars in this case, the impacts would just be at a higher speed.
Kinda like NASCAR.
