Despite advancements in safety technology, vehicle-related deaths are rising due to the increased size and weight of SUVs and trucks, raising significant concerns.
The shift in consumer preference towards larger vehicles, encouraged by automakers' profit margins, is critically impacting pedestrian and cyclist safety on the roads.
New proposed federal safety regulations would require automakers to assess the risks posed by larger vehicles to individuals outside of cars, marking a significant step towards improving road safety.
The growing trend of heavier trucks and SUVs, while providing more safety features, paradoxically leads to greater risks for vulnerable road users, particularly pedestrians and cyclists.
