'So society has accepted there will be accidents and fatalities? To quote you "Do you have a source?" '
Look at the laws and fatalities. It's clear that society accepts some fatalities. If they didn't, we would still be driving carriages or walking everywhere. Even the article on morality in this chain acknowledges that some fatalities are considered acceptable if the value derived is worth it.

It is genuine.

"instead of saying that society has to normalize the scenario with the worst case negative externalities?"
How can you say it's the worst case to have larger vehicles like SUVs?
