Nostalgia accounts on social media. Saw one today that was crowing how we used to drive on icy roads without ABS, four wheel drive, traction control and other safety features, and loads of Boomers post below it saying “Damn right” and other bullshit.
The drop in road traffic deaths since the sixties and seventies has been huge, with less than 2k deaths per annum in the UK now the norm. It was three times that back then.
Bullshit accounts like this really piss me off.
