    Driving a truck and not wanting children to die in accidents are in-fact not in conflict with each other.

    Then design trucks which are not as deadly to pedestrians on impact.

      Large vehicles are inherently going to be more dangerous to pedestrians than cars. If you make a truck the size of a car then it no longer functions in the role it was intented for. Why is everyone so focused on trucks anyway? The nose height on most vans is compareable and on semi trucks it double the height of a pickup yet nobody seems to be complaining about those.

        The convenience of drivers is not more important than human lives.

            Thanks for the strawman, I can burn it for fuel when winter comes.

            I see that you reference Sam Harris in a recent post. Thank you for making it clear that you’re not worth listening to, bye.
