    That’ll be hilarious when they can no longer fit down their streets.

    Just came from Italy and I absolutely loved how easy it was to see on the road, because all the cars were small.

    But fight the large cars as much as you can, they’re absolutely awful to live with.

      it’s already hard to fit a small car to park in the city, i don’t understand how people can even think to buy a car that’s longer than 4 meters. Roads and houses were built during the baby boom when cars weren’t used by everyone, so for example in my area there are 0.8 car parks per family.

      Then i see my cousin, living alone, single, no family buying a huge 5,5 meters SUV “because in the next three years i plan to move, bigger space is useful”. Could rent a van for 100 euro a day instead of spending 10k euro extra for a monster…
