As far as John Felix, (VERY Senior MSA Steward, aka. "GOD") is concerned, there should not be any trouble with most of the mainland hillclimbs obtaining a Kart license.

That suggests to me that Mr Felix believes that most mainland hillclimbs are as safe as kart tracks (at which there are few injuries).
Here's an example of a typical non-gearbox kart
The side and front "pods" on them are plastic and crumple on impact, and they have been crash tested by the FIA. The bodywork on that one is this years homologation so most karts look slightly different but it should give people an idea.
