    1. Work with urban planners to build safer roads.
    2. Make drivers licenses a privilege, not a right.

    1 costs money, and 2 is politically challenging and costs money in several ways.

      About 20% of drivers in the US are unlicensed. Car dependency means you can revoke someone’s licences all you like and they’ll still drive anyway (because they need to).

      Your #1, urban planning with viable car alternatives, is necessary to make driving a privilege again. Until then people will drive, legally or otherwise.
