Actually many cities aren’t accepting traffic deaths at all and are adopting Vision Zero. I believe it’s Norway that adopted it for the entire country and was able to go over a year with exactly zero traffic related deaths.
This problem is solvable and people in this thread saying that it’s not are absurd.
It was just Oslo actually, but I do agree with you. I wasn't saying 8000 is good, just that it's less insane than 762.
