Which kills more? "Overkill" in safety measures, or the absence of
them?

Considering the impact of speed bumps, stops signs added to control
speed, stop lights added to do the same and other such stuff, one has
to ask honestly whether more people die from the lack of these things
or from the added air polution they cause due to stop-and-accelerate
induced inefficiency. And if the added air polution is not a direct
killer, then at least its shortening the lives of those with lung
disorders.
