whether it is actually as little car as they truly need

Part of the reason why everyone is buying an SUV instead of a small sedan, is that you just feel unsafe driving next to a jacked up truck, nevermind a Cybertruck. There is a ton of YouTube videos that will readily show that one have no chance against those in an unfortunate encounter…

As if a cybertruck is somehow more dangerous than other trucks? It’s neither the heaviest, nor does it have the highest hood (the #1 pedestrian death rate predictor). Trucks are awful but CT is not the biggest offender lol.

It's an arms race. People are being killed.

Ban air bags in SUVs. Mandate a driver-facing spike in the middle of the steering wheel.
