    It’s a sort of arm’s race. People don’t feel safe in cars anymore with all these predators out on the roads, so they get bigger vehicles to feel safe again

    And it will just keep going. Soon everyone will drive tanks. 🙄

      Maybe we need a car that is low and wedge shaped, like something from battlebots. When cars high off the ground run in to it they will be guaranteed to roll.
