While we’re at it, ban SUVs and Light Trucks, by making a separate licence for them. If you need one for work? Or for personal use? Get a license that proves you know how to use one.
SUVs and Light trucks have done so much damage to our society: both by being dangerous as fuck, and in the insane amounts of pollution that emit. It’s about time the United States, and any other country that hasn’t yet, apply bandage to the wound. Slow the bleeding. Then the healing can begin.
This needs to happen if we want to end the madness. We should also start making our car lanes smaller in more urban areas, and by law exclude vehicles in the higher SUV/light truck category from entry, unless they are there for specific reasons (ie construction), and have a documentation of some sort to back that up. Lastly, for those few cases where this type of vehicle is genuinely needed, there has to be some sort of requirement in place that SUV/Light truck vehicles are designed in a way where they can actually see what is in front of them. the new usps truck design is a good example of what I mean here.

You’re completely right. So many people here drive massive land yatchs with more horsepower than sense.
Not only that but they cause a lot of noise pollution, air pollution, and just take up space they don’t need to be.
I drive a Camry (and I’m a big dude) and some lady almost hit me in a parking deck the other day driving a massive Yukon. Like wtf.
