@alis I'm not going to give you my angry rant about how the us car safety rules has killed small cars, but I can on demand lol
@Satsuma@cat.family @kate@federatedfandom.net @alis@cryptid.house the NHTSA is finally considering regulations on stuff like hood height! https://www.npr.org/2024/09/09/nx-s1-5106517/nhtsa-vehicle-design-pedestrian-protection
I'm just like, I want another econo box I can fit an entire wingback arm chair into, but an EV. Sadly this does not yet exist, but my Fit is still in good shape for now.
@Satsuma @alis oh sure, but when you compare modern cars to the 70s? And yeah, I was gesturing vaguely at different regulatory incentives and grouping them under a too specific section, but they all play together 😭
