Fears over safety as analysis by Which? shows ‘autobesity’ epidemic means cars getting wider and longer

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!

    I think so, but why does a forklift have to be so big if all it does is lift forks?
