Don't worry, nobody seriously drives cars from the 1950s for anything more than shows and parades. They're not only not as safe as newer vehicles, but also not as rust resistant or mechanically refined, and therefore make poor choices as daily drivers.

Somehow people managed to survive for many years without seat belts and air bags. Today we are almost to paranoid about safety. When my parents were growing up, it was not uncommon at all for the kiddies to crawl around in the back, not even staying in their seats, and yet generations managed to survive. Was this way better? No, but I am not so sure our way is so great either. A lot of enjoyable activities are no longer viable because there is a small risk of injury.
