I know.  I cursed Ralph Nader every time I mowed my lawn, because when I would
stop to pick up a rock or something, the mower engine stops, to be sure that I
won't stop on a hill and let it roll over me and cut my feet off.  I just
donated that 700 mower to the Salvation Army and bought a new Honda mower
with a blade clutch to stop that nonsense.

It is impossible to legislate accidents away... but our congress keeps trying.
and failing miserably...
