When a plane crashes investigators try to find the causes to make recommendations on how to make things safer. When a car crashes the investigation is not about safety, its about assigning blame.
This is the reason that aviation is as safe as it is, and cars are as dangerous as they are. Investigate car crashes the same way, and change licensing, training, vehicles, and infrastructure in response to those findings, and cars can be safe.
There is no such thing as an accident. Every collision is avoidable.
Also, there’s no fear of revoking pilot licenses. If someone behaves stupidly while piloting a plane, they won’t pilot a commercial plane again.
If someone behaves stupidly behind the wheel, usually nothing happens, and only rarely will someone get their license suspended for a limited amount of time.
Piloting a plane is not a right but a priviledge, and driving a car should be seend the same way.
