This means a ban on SUVs, right? Right?

Nah, I'm sure it'll be sorted by class of vehicle and will therefore just push trucks to be bigger to count as a larger class of vehicle.

I hope it involves putting a giant pool noodle on the front of every sharp-angled Cybertruck front bumper.

I miss the designs from the 50s and 80s that would slice a pedestrian off at the knees. But no, they had to mandate front impact protection for pedestrians and now we have flat faced cars everywhere.

Looks like someone at nhtsa watches Fortnine, seems to line up with what they were suggesting.

They should have a mandate to reduce blind spots as much as possible. Design of the vehicle be damned
Vehicles used to have way fewer blind spots before like 2005-ish
