The kid's grown six inches in two years and still isn't tall enough to be seen over the hood of these ridiculous death machines prowling our neighborhood streets.

anyone who thinks the problem with these trucks can be solved with radars or cameras has not been paying attention

@DrTCombs the problem, as they say, is between the seat and the steering wheel.

@tob @DrTCombs it's however not where the solution is. I enjoy driving small efficient cars, but after 3 days in Florida I switched my rental to an suv so I could see. Realized why Europe has regulations on this. You still have massive trucks, but the hood is angled so you can see what's in front of you.

I actively search for a small city car in the UK but my current one is basically as small as they go already.
