    Just make it illegal to have unsafe vehicles. Do a buyback for the existing ones.

    Billions for war but anything actually useful is too expensive. This is the bad place.

        I’d defer to someone with more expertise, but I’d guess a lot of SUVs and trucks are going to be disqualified.

        While I’m waving this low grade magic wand, maybe require a special license for SUVs or something.
