    There is evidence that these shit wagons are largely responsible for a major increase in pedestrian fatalities.

    EVs are also a cause, because of their heavy batteries. It’s like getting hit by a tank.

      You know what causes pedestrian fatalities? The presence of cars of any size.

      You know what eliminates pedestrian fatalities? Deleting parking lots and pedestrianizing streets.

        I’d like to see more streets limited to people. I guess it’s hard to pull off due to politics/economics. But you can hope.

          And there is data showing that bigger cars have driven up rates of pedestrian fatalities. I can get info on that.

        You know what increases pedestrian fatalities? Vehicles that are too tall to reasonably see pedestrians immediately in front of you. Make better arguments instead of “trucks don’t kill people, all cars do” because it’s absolutely not equal, and there’s real reasoning as to why.
