Well, I agree with you, John.  Again, I am not the one putting dual master 
cylinders, shoulder harnesses, passenger side mirrors, etc. in my Corvairs. 
It is all these people who grew up believing that ol' Ralphie was right when 
he said the Corvair and other cars of its generation were inherently unsafe 
and needed all this stuff to protect us from ourselves.  Now, I don't have a 
problem with people who want to pay extra money to stick this stuff on their 
car -- Heck, if that is what they need to feel safe driving a car, fine with 
me.  I could probably even dream up a few more gadgets and gizmos to sell 
them to make them feel even safer.  Of course, until they come up with a 
better piloting system (also known as the "nut behind the wheel"), you will 
never be any safer than your ability to practice defensive driving and avoid 
trouble in the first place.

But what the heck.  I'm just a nut case Libertarian.
