What kid deadning machine do you drive?
Just look at that. This truck is taller than a used kid (10 years old). I assume the truck can run over pretty much any other age but probably the driver might be able to see older kid's heads. Or we could teach our kids to jump to school rather than walk. If you see a truck, jump and make eye contact before jumping while crossing the street. Or we could tell our kids to never go outside until they are 21.
You're viewing a single thread.
Here's another such killer truck just steps from the previous one in the same parking area.
You know that kid is just like "Mom, can we just go home? No I don't wanna stand in front of any more trucks! Mom, stop being weird."
Why does that person have a bull bar on their truck in a garage?
That bar also looks designed to push its target down under the vehicle. I bet that performs super deadly in the crash tests it has never done
Drivers are warned that bull bars (commonly "roo bars" here) will make the car less safe by preventing correct deployment of airbags in a collision, yet people fit them. They also add steel tubes to carry four fishing rods, which emergency services people call "sausage makers" for their effect on vulnerable road users
Do you think people remove bull bars just to park or something?
In my country you're not allowed to have them on public roads. Because they do pretty much nothing additional to protect your life (only your property), while obliterating others.
Yes then people take them on or off if they want to take an agricultural/industrial vehicle on public roads.
That's surprisingly enlightened and humanist. Not all pieces of equipment needed in rough environments should be allowed in non rough environments just because "I needed it out there!", which is the small minded US logic we seem to be okay living with.
Doesn’t seem like that would be legally required or expected in the US, so again your surprise seems unwarranted.
Its Nevada. Nevada has signs for drivers to watch out for deer, cattle, donkeys, horses, pigs, slow trucks, rams and I'm probably missing a few others. Not signs about kids. They probably put those near schools only where parents actually drop off the kids at the front entrance.
Also for this:
All the cars in that picture are ginormous. That's crazy. Cars are trending to be larger here in Europe, but that is something else.
I was at a car dealership recently. In the front was all their pickup trucks. My car was lower than half of them.
