Not everyone follows the driving laws, and even those who do, still get injured and die, yet no highway lockdowns.

Some people don't wear masks, even those who do get sick or die, yet we lock everyone down.

The covid pandemic lockdown may be inconvenient, but it's worth it, even if others and the economy suffers. The 'movid pandemic' however, is no different in that sense, yet let's disregard that.

This is hypocrisy, and many will not stand for that. My way or the highway, is no way to get people behind you.

the reason traffic deaths aren't thought of as a pandemic is because they aren't contagious (or even if you're going to make a stupid analogy between car accidents and getting others sick it's not contagious in nearly the same way). Also traffic accidents kill an order of magnitude less people, so there's that. 

Driving is just as 'contagious' as socializing. The accidents themselves aren't exactly contagious, just like how covid isn't contagious simply on it's own.

Traffic accidents take place everywhere since vehicles have spread worldwide. Who decides how many deaths are reasonable? Who decides if it's news worthy? What's that matter if none of them are seen as trustworthy?
