Anyone can commit mass murder cheaply and efficiently by driving a $500 used car into a crowd. Why doesn't that happen more often?

@St_Rev@sarahdoingthing Gah, I can't find any stats. But I maintain it's harder than you think to actually make this happen to many people. -
@St_Rev@sarahdoingthing I think ppl are pretty good at life-preserving flight behaviours. Also, assuming a car is on a straight path... -
@St_Rev@sarahdoingthing ...for you, its bumper is maybe 2 m wide? So you need to move 1 m to get out of way. Running speed ~5 m/s so 1/5s. -
@simplic10@sarahdoingthing That's neglecting reaction time & acceleration time & assuming the car's path is predictable. -
@St_Rev@sarahdoingthing True, true, sorta true but remember greater speed = more path predictability.
