This ageist crap again. Accidents disproportional involve new/inexperienced drivers. Young drivers are necessarily new. For a fifth of multiple vehicle fatal accidents to involve any 10th of drivers would be almost expected.

Rail can add and remove heavy rail temporary sidings in a matter of hours. When rail was the only powered freight option agricultural sidings would be put down to collect produce in a small area, then picked up and moved down the tracks a couple of miles, rinse and repeat. There are places in the world right now where narrow gauge light rail is placed into fields to collect produce, and picked up and moved multiple times for the same field.


The statistical value of a human life is over $10 million in the US, so 80% of the cost of fatal accidents is subsidized by the victims, and that insurance is for only 3%.
You need to work on your bit. A joke is funny if it is:
Up-front bigotry isn’t even a joke. Bigotry only seems like jokes when it’s the punch line, because stereotypes take the place of setup for a joke to establish something that you should have seen coming. They take the place of a callback to something said earlier or a reference to shared experience.
Jokes that rely on the situation of bigotry being expected are difficult and require much more effort or insight than “[identity] lol”. In other words: put your ass into your schtick.
