Please follow the link to comment in support of a proposed rule to require vehicles in the US to be designed with some pedestrian safety considerations. It will hopefully keep some obviously dangerous designs off of our roads.

I’m not entirely sure how to read this, but I have to wonder if the gist of it is “please don’t build sharp edged murder trucks, Elon”.
I think the idea is that passenger vehicles should have to have design features that mitigate harm to pedestrians, specifically pertaining to head injuries. Apparently having a low, angled hood is better than a high, vertical grill. So I guess the Cybertruck wouldn’t be the worst offender among the other pick-ups out there.
Thanks. So it’s more for the recent generations of tall flat SUVs and trucks. I’ve heard the injury stats on those have been pretty bad. I’m glad someone is trying to do something about it.
Those are the two developments in truck safety I’ve heard in the news this year, so I had a 50/50 chance, but I guessed the wrong one, lol.
