It would be easier and safer to outlaw motorcycles.  I've been cut off by suicidal Kawasaki riders more than anything else.  A couple years ago I saw a kid on what could only be described as straddling a booster rocket shooting down between stopped lanes of traffic at about 80.  Someone opened their door to fix their seat belt... he hit the door, ripped it off, killed himself and critically injured the person who had opened their door in nonmoving traffic.

How unnecessary was that?

My car has a PC inside it and a mate of mine said to use the webcam in the front of the car to aim at the cars like KITT from knight rider lol

It be very easy to do this but its so illegal id love to do it tho :D

Personal experience tells me even the best of riders will eventually be killed or maimed by either a mistake of their own or of someone else's.  I come from a long line of bikers, every one of them 20+ year riders and every one of them eventually either killed or permanently injured on their bikes.  My uncle was a career Navy man, had been riding for 30 years, and was killed in an instant by a woman in a van on her phone.  My father was sideswiped by a guy playing with his radio, leg amputated up to the hip.  I could go on and on with similar stories for people I am related to or close with... at least half of the injuries/deaths, if not most, are caused by things the rider cannot control.

They're simply not safe.  Motorcycle riding is a behavioural form of natural selection.
