Re: Bleh
But Free markets hate "red tape" .. even though lots of "red tape" is actually safety regs.
So if tehre[sic] is an economic cost, without it being mandatory, lots of companies will not add useful safety features unless they have to
You'd think then that all vehicles would be sold without seatbelts & airbags - apart from "Luxury" brands of course. However, including non-mandatory safety features is something manufactures do in the consumer market to differentiate their products.
If you're selling sports cars, you talk about the top speed and acceleration.
If you're selling family cars you talk about safety features.
