I got a lot of push-back on a comment I made here about how bigger trucks/suvs are the primary cause the increasing pedestrian death-rate in America so apparently more people need to see this video.

    It’s not a small part of consumer vehicles in the USA anymore.

    Don’t have to ban gas trucks but there shouldn’t be special breaks that incentivezes car companies to push them on people.

    Battery mining and shipping should definitely be accounted for. But oil also requires extraction and transportation.
