@BigUriel 3 года назад

@@velohench And even if crashes go down, the repair bills generally go up, because there is an entire subset of the automotive industry built on the premise of overcharging for accident repairs because the insurer is paying for it. Take whatever quote a body shop gives you to fix some damage to your car out of pocket, and expect them to charge at least 50% more if the insurance is paying for it (by changing other bits that didn't need to be changed, inflating the hours etc). Insurance is expensive, in part, because the car repair shops will charge them 1500 dollars to replace a bumper.

@Bloodglas 3 года назад

my guess for 'wider lanes increasing crashes' is that having everyone further apart makes them feel like there's more room for error so people drive less cautiously.

@luke_cohen1 2 года назад

That's partly it but there's another thing we haven't taken into account: wider lanes means less lanes on the road itself. This makes it harder for slower drivers to move so faster drivers can pass them since everyone has less lanes to work with. Plus, the global population's median age has increased over time and we all know the issues older drivers cause on the road. This had lead to greater speed disparities on the road and has caused more accidents and traffic jams as a result since faster/busier drivers get a lot more pissed off and reckless. A two lane road shouldn't be a hassle to travel on but it becomes one when a 65-75 year old grandma going 5-10 mph (8-16 km/h) under the speed limit is at the front of a line slowing everyone else down behind them. The angrier the drivers behind them get, the more likely they will do something drastic to get around them and that will increase the risk of accidents if that driver isn't calculated enough to make such a maneuver safely.

@julianpowers594 2 года назад

Check out “Confessions of a Recovering Engineer” by Charles Marohn if your interested in lane width among other road safety things

@neruwu Год назад

That's part of it but additionally the smaller the lane the faster your brain thinks you're going. So on a smaller road you will subconsciously drive slower than on a bigger road because it seems to you that you're going much faster than you actually are.

When I was working as a carpenter, I looked into getting a truck and my main problem with all of them was the height. You get a truck to haul your tools, all these trucks were too tall for me to grab a tool from the bed without hopping up into it. I had no need for a massive hunk of metal just to bring my ~200 lbs of tools to a site. Heck, put in a lumber rack and I could probably be better off with a short bed and extended cab. When Telsa unveiled the CYBERTRUCK I was actually bummed. A RU-vidr had converted her Model 3 into a truck by replacing the back seats with a bed and mounting a lumber rack. That was WAY more of a truck for me than an armored behemoth made for the end of the world.

@elijahstewart1333 2 года назад

even as someone who often has to work on trucks theyre so needlessly big, the engine bay is almost entirely empty space, the beds arent much bigger and the interiors feel like livingrooms, its ridiculous, when people were hauling the exact same shit in the back of their trucks that were half the size 30 years ago

Cars have been getting faster/more powerful but speed limits have remained the same. Well done, car manufacturers!

@26adex Год назад

I was thinking when he said that, that the only reason they got faster is for manufacturers to brag about it. In day to day life size is more important (at least in Europe) because many of those bigger cars are the worst when it comes to finding a place to park somewhere. They literally can't be fitted in some place that is supposed to be able to have one car. They take up almost 2 car spaces. I would prefer to cars even get a little slower for the safety reasons and remain their size instead of getting faster and thus bigger so they can fit all those safety features that would not have to be there
