At least NY state has a periodic cursory safety inspection. They did back in the 70s. Not sure if that's still a thing. Needs to be everywhere.
OH GOD that is the very worst. Michigan is really bad for that. Scares the crap out of me. So far in the last 3 years I have been hit with a tail light that flew off a car at 70MPH and a brake line that came out from under one at about 60. Both cases the cars were from Michigan.
Although I would like to think that the LCA that hit me when the truck threw it up with their trailer wheel was from a vehicle that was on a flatbed it is not totally inconceivable it fell off a car right in the center of the highway.
