They think it will save about 55 lives a year...
That’s about 0.000018% of the population - and an approximate 0.16% drop in the number of automobile fatalities.
At a cost of, say, $1,000 per vehicle?
So, total cost to consumers nationwide would be about $15.6 billion per year, or about $284 million per life saved.
That is considerably higher than the life-time maximum pay-out limits on most of the health insurance plans...
Typical Democrat reaction:
A few people cannot dive well & safely, so we all have to have thousands of dollars added to the price of a new car because of their incompetence.
There is a SMALL problem-—but we will throw a BIG solution at it.
