Less car crash deaths too.

But society will disintegrate if we move away from using cars, as opposed to disintegrating if we keep using them.

Because we've intentionally designed it so that we have to rely on cars or else we can't function, which puts us at the mercy of other countries for our day-to-day existence. If we can't get cheap oil, we can't function because of this intentional fragility.
