Change the laws. If it is a truck you should have to get a CDL, have to go to weight stations, cant drive on the parkway etc. If it is a car it should have to follow the emission rules cars have. There is no point in having standards if we make exceptions so big you can drive a cough…sports utility vehicle…cough through.
that would be a great way to undermine your entire cause.
some people just prefer larger cars, and pivoting to some bizarre comment about their genitalia is an incredibly stupid way to go about dealing with the issue.

Literally the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard. You clearly don’t know what a CDL is, and for that, actual trucks that require them have had emmsision systems for a long time now.
2 secs with Google would show you it’s a Commercial Driver’s License. Used for Commercial Vehicles which have a gross weight of over 26k lbs, or required to tow a trailer over 10k lbs GVR. But I’m sure you already knew that. Weight stations are for weighing vehicles that qualify as CMV’s and / or that are subject to the FMCSR’s, hence the 3 little red lights in the back of them, but again, you knew that.

I am sure car companies spend a ton of money lobbying politicians to never do this.

Fine whatever. I will start leaving notes in the bed of gas guzzling pickups that say “sorry about the micropenis you feel you need to compensate for”

Boring…sorry you were shortchanged down there.
random65837@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Shortchanged on what? Reality?
CosmicCleric@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Could you give the rest of us a quick education on what that is?
