This is really a big step in my opinion, as language choices can shape opinions, as the article states “a ‘significant step forward’ in recognizing the preventable nature of road collisions.”

    While I suspect you’re just trying to be funny, this could be read as an attempt to trivialize car-related fatalities by comparing automobile accidents to bowel malfunctions.

    People don’t usually die from pissing themselves.

    Edit: I’m not trying to shit on anyone’s fun, but I leave comments like this because I don’t like the idea of some hypothetical lurker even accidentally walking away with misinterpretations.

    It’s like how you can make fun of bigots using sarcasm, but sometimes they just take you seriously, and walk away thinking you’re one of them. I hate when that happens, and sometimes you wont even know if it did.
