Interesting points but the risk from collisions (often due to human error) need to be accounted for. Furthermore, not everyone drives a car from the last 5 years, not many can afford it. There's still heaps of old Toyota Hilux(s) out there from the 1990's and early 2000's, and I've seen trucks still getting around from at least the 1980's. ABS is a great safety feature but drivers need to know how to effectively use it and actually have a vehicle that has it.

From https://www.roadsafety.gov.au/nrss/fact-sheets/movement-and-place-approach
There's an accumulating decrease in crashes due to
A) less time on road
B) compounded with less fatigue
I'm on mobile so I can't pull studies up rn
