While this is mostly about parking issues, the part that stood out most to me in this is:

A study published in the Journal of Safety Research last year found that children were eight times more likely to die when struck by an SUV than those struck by a passenger car.

Eight times! To me, that’s insane. Even if it were 50% that would be very bad, but this is 700% more!

    Fair enough, I’ve never seen anyone push it that far over here in my experience.

      You’ll spot one soon, still rare, but they’re ridiculously oversized and absolutely pointless.
