More than 150 car models too big for regular UK parking spaces - eviltoast

While this is mostly about parking issues, the part that stood out most to me in this is:

A study published in the Journal of Safety Research last year found that children were eight times more likely to die when struck by an SUV than those struck by a passenger car.

Eight times! To me, that’s insane. Even if it were 50% that would be very bad, but this is 700% more!

    Then vote for it. I haven’t met somebody who isn’t a tory infatuated. Every person just bloody loved Boris soooooo much “but he’s so x and y!”

    Start voting for a change

      Boris is actually a bit of a weird outlier in the Tories. I don’t like him for lots of other reasons, but he did seem to genuinely believe that climate change was an issue and used to ride a bike about London all the time when he was mayor. Shouldn’t have got anywhere near the PMs seat though.
