Look at Life Vol 01 Transport What Price Safety 1965 

Radial ply tyres, ABS, crumple zones, anti-burst door latches, seat belts, safety glass - all these things were available but considered “too costly” - until manufacturers had their arms twisted.

Fred Dibnah once said there was no such thing as a bad steeplejack.....because there’ll all dead.

Hard to believe that helmets were not compulsory until was it the 70's?

Motorcycles with stabiliser skids never caught on then.

Back in the days when you had spiked domes in the center of steering wheels and no seat belts

Glad that the habit of driving at night with only the side/park lights on has disappeared...

It's quite remarkable how far we as a society have come in terms of vehicle safety since this was made. I'm 58 now & remember rolling around in the back seat as a child due to the lack of seat belts. I also remember how many died of horrific chest injuries or facial trauma. Yes, we've come a long way but at what cost? People still die & the cars were so much cooler back then... It really is hard to choose!

I wonder what they'd say if you told them modern cars prices and that people still die in them?
