@hockeymaskbob2942 I've been riding bicycles for over thirty years. I've been hit by seven cars. I've never been hit by a truck. Maybe truck people are just better drivers.

@mrbubetube If you want to be safe, be the one riding in the truck.

Won't happen. The closest you'll get is something like the Ford Maverick. A unibody pickup "truck" with a 4-cylinder engine to appease the EPA.

@Michael Considering trucks have better ground clearance and larger tires than cars, right from the factory...yes, trucks are necessarily better off-road.

@emperorpalpatine6448 Your safety is your responsibility. My safety is my responsibility. I'm not going to make myself or my family less safe to make you feel better. If we're riding bikes together and collide, my helmet is likely going to crack your bare skull. I'm not going to stop wearing my helmet, so you should really consider getting one of your own.

@hockeymaskbob2942 Thus, there are backup cameras. Problem solved.

@hockeymaskbob2942 You realize you just said they're going to create a solution to the problem that you're whining about, right?

@dchawk81 Why do more and more people think that nit-picking makes them seem intelligent? If you have to dissect every statement, wring any generalizations out of it and then argue against it, you're doing it wrong. Anyone with half a brain can see that OP was making a general statement, not a fully exclusionary one. Furthermore, OP didn't say you couldn't understand what the use cases are, only that if you don't understand that there are use cases, you live a very different life. If you're going to nit-pick, you could at least take the time to be right.

No you don't. Their "fixes" cause all sorts of problems. Better they stick to crying.

@hockeymaskbob2942 Actually, it's a problem irresponsible drivers caused and no amount of legislation is going to fix. After a few more decades of watching the same pattern, maybe you'll realize it, too. Make something idiot-proof and the world will produce bigger idiots. The best anyone can do is take responsibility for themselves and their families. If more people did that, fewer kids would get killed. There is no legialation to fix that problem.
