    Not ban, but make the licensing process more rigorous for a vehicle that takes more skill to operate safely compared to a standard car. Anyone can get a higher class drivers license if they pass the test, but the majority of people won’t bother so you end up with less trucks driven by people who just want to look cool.

        Because trucks have been proven to be more dangerous and make any accident more likely to be fatal? They also present unique safety challenges not present in smaller cars, namely they have a huge blind spot in front of them like any other tall commercial vehicle. If you’re going to drive a more dangerous vehicle, you’d better actually know how to drive it safely.

          There’s indeed many people that claim it’s very dangerous, and women should cover their hair in public!

          In both cases I’d rather see people happy and just enjoy their lives

            Hard to enjoy life spread across the pavement like a crayon by a truck.

            Believe it or not, some lifestyle choices have consequences external to the person making the decision
