How many will die because you felt safe and wanted to support the economy.
Remember the Ford Pinto? There was a problem with the design, if it was jit in the rear a bolt could go into the gas tank and cause the car to burst into flames. Ford determined that it was cheaper to pay off the families of people who died then to recall the car to fix the problem.

I guess it's cheaper to let people die then to close down (or at least restrict) the economy.
Sounds like a whole lot of "what if's"
At least 50% of drivers of autos and golf carts over 60yo should not be driving either. It's not safe and they are putting everyone at risk.
