Anyone who has been nearly hit by a car while walking understands why violence is the correct term.
Secondly, your chart seems to be looking at motorist fatalities rather than pedestrian deaths caused by motor vehicles. This is what you want: https://www.iihs.org/topics/fatality-statistics/detail/pedes...
Of course if pedestrians are just an another inconvenience in front of your windshield, it's all hysterics.
I'd like a future where we're less car reliant, I think modern vehicles are dangerous to pedestrians - that does not make this some sort of violence however - violence implies an intent, and I dont think there is any provable intent here.
"Violence" does imply an intent. It's CRAZY to try to associate car accidents with acts of violence, or cars with weapons. It's an attempt to push an agenda by creating a victimhood narrative, because the facts are not supportive of getting rid of cars or drastically changing them. The victim/violence narrative can bypass logical argument in the minds of some people. It's very stupid and dishonest but apparently these people don't care about the truth.
