Here's an interesting Freakonomics piece that addresses our capacity for being complete assholes when put behind a steering wheel. Check out Levitt and Dubner's solution - something we could realistically implement. I have a more progressive (read: unrealistic) solution that addresses our individual perception of our own identities. Our cars should have LCD screens all around them with our mugshots on them - publishing our identities to the outside world. This way, our vehicles become true extensions of our 'selves' (instead of masks) and should fall in line with our moral accountability of our actions against our vision of 'self'. Huh?
