Stop signs were updated to become timed traffic signals.

Seat belts were pretty much non-existent in the 1950s and it was the same with roll bars.

Now we have airbags (front AND side) and heavier structural steel reinforcement in the bodies of the cars.

Brakes first became Power Brakes and are now ABS.

Steering became Power Steering.

And the human brain (which directs the car) has a lot more statistical information available to support safer driving habits.
