I think the fact that "automotive safety" begins at the headlights and ends at the tail lights is extremely relevant (and frightening).
The safety of cars for literally everyone in the world EXCEPT for the 1-5 people inside that car is not considered.
It was only a few years ago (2016, in Paris) that Christoph von Hugo, a safety engineer from Mercedes, was asked how a self-driving car would handle a "trolley problem" type situation, where the car could either hit a group of pedestrians, or swerve in a way that could injure or kill the driver, and he said, "Save the one in the car."
