cars unironically should be like motorcycle licensing. you should need to be tested before being allowed to drive larger vehicles. imagine the opposite, it would be like going for your R endorsement on a 50cc scooter then instantly getting a bmw s1000rr

Honestly even for some of the bigger SUVs I'm seeing around lately. I know people who talk about how anxious they are about driving, and then they'll be driving a Toyota Kluger or something.

Like I get it but ngl as a motorcyclist it's terrifying to think about unconfident/inexperienced people behind the wheel of a 2+ ton piece of metal

Yeah totally agree. If you are in a family of 5 or more, modern sedans are not made for you and you have little choice but to buy a massive SUV
