Not arguing with the statement being made here but the tilt shift photography makes that picture much worse than it is in reality. Again, I completely disagree with these giant atrocities rolling down the road but still this photo is not accurate by any means.
I think you mean forced perspective, not tilt shift. Those are two different things in photography.
One pretty big factor to these getting bought is due to safety and for that reason I feel like we as a society has prioritized driver safety that we have sacrificed pedestrian safety
it's not safety, i mean, well, it is safety, at the cost of the poor sod that you crash into and fucking kill. Or the children that you're statistically more likely to run over and even more statistically likely to kill if you do hit them.
You know what else is safe? Not ramming your car into a brick wall.
I'm just talking about car safety for the first bit here, not even pedestrian impacts.
That's a goddamn Ferd Fteenthousand.
My car is probably smaller than the cabin and engine of that truck and I don’t even have a compact car
How else are they supposed to tell the entire world they are massive dicks with micro penises?
