My friend had a plant hire company that used a 2007 ford Mondeo to pull the excavators. America is simple for trucks
Comment on UK vehicle regulator David Ward says cars sold in Europe are so much safer than in the U.S.

How much of this is just from Europe not having every suburban dad bro driving a lifted f250 to get a single bag of dirt from Home Depot. Or, soccer mom driving an expedition (f150 wagon) to drive their 1 kid to soccer practice.

Sounds like it’s both.
But the reason I think this means alot in favour of regulations, is that in EU over the last 30 years, death rates have dropped in almost every single country. In Portugal it was 80%.
Europe didnt change car size in that periode, but they did get much better safety standards.

Cars in Europe have got huge in the last 30 years. They certainly did change size.
