Phones, automatic transmission, so we have a free hand to use the phone, and huge dangerous roads built with no care for pedestrian safety.

It’s no single thing, but a mix of things that feed on each other, and create a terribly dangerous situation.

Also, huge truck and SUVs and the demand for them is ever increasing.
