Sure and people fearful of horseless carriages in the 1890s are rightfully fearful of dying since:

* horseless carriages won't avoid running into things whereas horses can see and instinctively won't run into a wall

* the greater speed of horseless carriages in the 1890s without modern safety infrastructure like signs and traffic lights does greatly increase the risk of injury
