To get to zero you must eliminate cars completely and I don't buy into that kind of logic.

That's not what GP said. Zero deaths caused by cheap/large vehicles.

You can eliminate deaths by that cause by eliminating those types of vehicles, not by eliminating all cars.

Not saying that's feasible, but let's not argue against something that nobody said in the first place.

It’s not some mystical thing, but a matter of smart urban design. Oslo and Helsinki have managed to achieve zero road deaths in a year without eliminating vehicles. You don’t need to accept a certain amount of deaths as some sort inevitability or a necessary sacrifice.
