European road safety regulations are significantly weaker than those in the US and Canada.

Pretty sure that’s not the case, had a little Google and it seems like I’m right, but I’m open to being corrected if I’m wrong or misunderstanding what you mean. Here’s evidence to support my claim:

I’ve lived in several European countries and also worked in compliance departments for auto manufacturers. You have zero clue what you’re talking about.

Yet you back up your claim with nothingness. Not quite sure how living in a country makes you an expert on regulations. Why didn’t you add substance? The compliance department in the companies I worked for wouldn’t be experts btw.
