minus-square@r128@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink4•2 months agoThis is ridiculous. Everyone knows bigger trucks reduce pedestrian casualties. They’re easier to spot, and they inspire a certain primal fear that really encourages getting out of the way. Think of the children!
minus-square@baggachipz@sh.itjust.worksOPMlinkfedilink2•2 months agoI say we make them even bigger. If they’re high enough, they’ll just go right over the pedestrian without touching them. Checkmate, libruls!
minus-square@sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink3•2 months agoNah, that’s impractical, because then we’d need to raise all of the bridges. Instead, let’s add plows to the trucks to push the children out of the way.
