Ban the Ford Mustang



https://www.facebook.com/BanTheFordMustang

Do you need a 300+ horsepower car to get groceries anymore then you need a AR-15 for home defence?

Yeah sure, because Ford is totally responsible for people's stupidity and arrogance..

But if they didn't equip it with live axle there might be less chances of crashing

Isn't this analogy completely flawed? This is equivalent to saying completely banning one specific model of gun, where as the the gun debate issue is regarding a much more general aspect (ie. semi-auto's, or laws regarding all guns.)

Shouldn't it be ban all high output engines instead?

Are you fucking stupid? It doesn't matter if you have a 50hp fiat or a 1000hp street machine. People will crash regardless.

While cars are obviously not built to be killing machines, this is the prevalent argument in the gun control debate, I think that is what the post was really targeting.

Actually, Japan used to believe that 300hp cars were too dangerous.
So they had this 280hp gentle agreement.
However they found out that horsepower had nothing to do with accident rate.

It didn't matter if you drove a 100hp Corolla or 450hp Mercedes Benz.
To make a long story short, higher horsepower didn't mean higher accident rate.

I'm marking this on my calendar. I agree with Timpo.
