      Just like all these pickup trucks that have such horrible frontal blind spots and high bumpers so they can run over all the children they want without seeing any of them.

      do you like actually have a source for that? because i’m not sure there’s actually enough force at 30km/h to kill people…

      i can totally believe that they cause worse injuries, because they’ve got a taller square front, but them killing people as such speeds is harder to believe.

        1. they are talking about mph not km/h. so about 50km/h
        2. 30km/h certainly is enough to seriously injure if not kill a person. If you need a source, try going 30 on a bike and riding stright into a brick wall.

        The person was talking about 30 miles per hour. So about 50 km/h for normal people.

        I can easily believe that front is very deadly at 50.
