Regulate the market? What are you, some kind of communist?
Meanwhile, builds the largest highway network in the world, many even in cities; maintain shitload of free parking; also enforces minimum parking requirements, all at the expense of tax payer.
People without cars are literally forced to pay to make everyone’s life worse.
FREEDOM!
Just gonna keep on posting this
meters
Ya lost all Americans.
Au contraire. We Americans think easily in both Imperial and SI. In terms of units we’re bilingual. It’s you 10-10-10 types whose brains have been scrambled by your over-easy conversions and estimates.
What the stink are you talking about
The only Americans I know who know any proper amount of metric converting are folks in technical fields that require it. The layman knows that metric exists, most don’t learn how to convert, and I’ve even met a couple different people who were proud of not using metric.
This is a weird argument to be having, but I think I agree with the person above, minus the smugness. I haven’t run into a situation in the US in many years where someone didn’t use both. Especially in a global economy where we ship things all over the world, metric is everywhere in the US.
Directly regulating the size isn’t the only possibility though, huge cars are really rare in the EU even though there isn’t anything prohibiting you from buying them. You just won’t fit anywhere with one if you do :)
Ahah love the pic u linked of one blocking a tram. The regulators would surely be on their ass for blocking stuff like that.
Sad thing is as these become more common they’ll pressure the right people to change the infrastructure around their bigger cars.
This is actually how jaywalking became a crime
Trucks are commercial vehicles. You need them for towing, hauling and other construction related activities. License, permit and tax them as such. If you have a huge boat or RV you need to tow, get and pay for a permit. Have the taxes be based on mileage so the more they’re used, the more expensive it is. We invented weigh stations to make trucks compensate for the additional strain they put on roads. Same for these trucks. That’ll help prevent them from being daily drivers.
I recently moved to a state where there are so many giant vehicles, and I drive a compact car. The front of the hood of an f-150 is as tall as my entire car. I feel like I’m the closest to the ground out of all the cars on the highway. You see all these big trucks and SUVs having a hard time maneuvering in parking lots. Why do all these people need such giant vehicles? Gas is expensive enough in my little tiny car, is the worse mileage even worth it?
Should be required by law that all new cars have Pedestrian crash avoidance mitigation (PCAM) systems. In the same way that seatbelts and rear cameras are required. Would be surprised if it’s nit required by 2030.

But if I don’t have a truck the size of a locomotive how will people know that I absolutely do not have a micropenis?
Not Redditors when they get to body shame people they disagree with.
