    I’m willing to bet that the design of modern trucks is killing more pedestrians than seat belts are. But go off.

    The source of that claim seems to be a single article written in 1985, and has absolutely no data to support the claim that feeling safer so driving more dangerously is the actual cause, but states it as fact nonetheless.
