With over five times as many people being killed by autos in the US per
year as died in the terrorist attacks back in '01, not to mention the
pollution, noise, and roughly 50% of livable space in cities being
sacraficed to the transporatation and storage of autos, I think the
would might have been a better place had Ford had this attitude.

I personally was in a head-on accident in Chico, California when I was
very little, and I've been in six other accidents since then (I wasn't
the one driving in any of them, they've usually been some idiot
driving under the front of the bus I've been on).  Working in a
children's hospital, I've watched five kids die from auto related
injuries in the last year and there's two more fighting for thier
lives right now here.

I think you picked the worst imaginable metaphor possible to get your
point across...
