I don’t care that I’m more likely to kill pedestrians in my car. I don’t care that there isn’t room for my car and others to co-habit smoothly on London’s streets."

Re: Vehicle Size Creep
Here we see collective and individual action to make climate change worse. Collectively, the government provides the incentives and the companies promote the bigger gas-guzzlers. Individually, people fall for it and buy them to satisfy their egos or whatever psychological button has been pushed by the marketing and mind control department. I'm marveling at how insane it is. We don't stand a chance.

The length of the bed alone puts the old Hilux SR5 ahead of all the modern Tonka shit.

If only there was some way to discourage landbarges from urban and suburban areas...

Re: Vehicle Size Creep
Yarra goes all Parisian!
https://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/nation ... 5fazj.htmlAn inner-Melbourne council could become the first municipality in Australia to increase parking fees for so-called truckzilla twin-cab utes and large SUVs, due to concerns about their safety and environmental impact.
Yarra City Council – which includes Fitzroy, Richmond and Collingwood – will on Tuesday debate a motion from Greens councillor Sophie Wade asking the council to investigate ways to discourage large and heavy vehicles on Yarra’s streets, including “proportionate parking fees based on a
vehicle’s size”.
