    There are going to be large vehicles, no stopping that. So I think this is a good suggestion. But I agree with your sentiment. 😞

    Before I take off with my small SUV (Volvo EX40), I turn on the cameras just to make sure there’s nothing in the car’s immediate vicinity. If I reverse out, it does it automatically.

      Why is there no stopping? Of course we can stop it with regulations and laws.

      Trucks also have a fixed length and height, so why not cars?

        Well, I think we have different reference frames, perhaps. When I say small SUV, is probably half the size of an American normal SUV. Cars in America are humongous. Cars in Europe are quite a bit smaller on average. I agree the cars in America are over the top, and dangerous. 👍

        But up to a certain size, the SUV is sometimes the best choice for a family’s situation, and demand for a product is going to be hard to stop.
