2 points:

1-Everything you mentiond remains safely LOCKED inside the car (except the spd bump when the person goes walking about. If motorists had to drag those items around (incl the spd bump , it would be an entirely different scenario.

2-The writing of a law needs to have an overwhelming cause. Laws aren't written for an entire society that will change only 1-2 lives. Laws written without proper cause/justification are simply bureaucracy pushed either by people/companies who stand to profit, including profits for the lawyers writing these laws (or Moms against this and that, anything to require OTHERS to take responsibility for their own children)
