Do you think modern car is getting more and more ridiculous?

Traffic are more congest over times yet engine horse power on private vehicle is triple fold than last 3 decades,make it capable to accelerate at uncontrollable speed pose more dangerous to other road user as we normal driver not professional racer our driving skill didint gain improvement as sync with engine advanment over decades yet is normal to found those 500hp above family sedan or suv driving by some lunatic immature mind on road.Last year in northen state of my country a women on her way riding motorcycle home from grocery shopping is get hit and instant killed by over speeding original spec bmw suv what caught on road side cctv show the car launch like canonball and smash the women with bike into pieces the shatter body is even cause paramedic team took times to complete collect in whole on accident scene.Beside what is the point you cant get to your destination regarless of how fast you can drive as you just stuck in traffic like others?I know it is provide to meet demand relation between automaker to auto buyer but this vicious cycle is getting worst 😰

Cars aren't just for getting from A to B. They are to produce enjoyment, entertainment and comfort whilst travelling. HP does not increase the rate of accidents. The level of inability of the driver does. After all, the car does not drive unless someone is driving it.

@Gumba1000 im not oppose of improvement of comfort but improvement of abnormal speed that catering to those like to drive fast and not capable to handling it and compromise other road user safety for driving pleasure is so wrong.

@UsernameAlreadyInUse I can see your point but you are arguing for people to obey the law. Even 1 litre engines with 90bhp can break speed limits. There's nothing wrong in getting to the speed limit quicker surely?

@Gumba1000 yeah,indeed smaller or slow car indeed easier to handle.

@UsernameAlreadyInUse Depends on your experience surely? Someone that had driven a more powerful car for years in all conditions should not find it hard?
