In the short term, perhaps.
In the long term you get:
-health problems
-lack of experience around vehicles as you grow up, which will increase risk when you do and then must deal with vehicles
-learning that driving is like a video game, so when you do eventually drive you think of pedestrians as 'bonus points' and think you can press the 'reset' button when you crash.

hows that for pointification with no fact.
