South Australia proposes law for bigger garages to stop street parking being ‘overrun’ with SUVs
South Australia proposes law for bigger garages to stop street parking being ‘overrun’ with SUVs
Well, I guess that's one way to solve the problem 🙄
Exactly. That is the only solution!
In no way would it be better to rule that cars need to become regular-sized again. Imagine, not having two steps at your door to enter the vehicle, or not sitting as high as long-haul truck drivers!
If the car does not need a minimum of 1.8 parking spaces, it is too small!
This policy is at the state level and states do not have jurisdiction over vehicle standards. Vehicle standards are regulated by the national government, so this is more of an addressing the symptom of an issue the state has no control over the cause of. That doesn't mean it's not ridiculous that garage size regulations are what's changing, but let's cast share where it's due.
Not even big on the fuckcars movement and still I think just ban the fucking things. Most of em aren’t even owned by people who use utes for work. Practically every tradie I know has snap ons. These things are owned by fuckwits with too much money wanting to LARP as blue collar workers.
🤦
I like the hallway to one room
This reminds me of an old joke where there's a pothole in the street causing major accidents, and the solution is to move the pothole in front of the hospital so that people can get medical care more quickly.
Absolutely amazing that vehicle safety standards can be regulated, but not vehicle sizes.
I can appreciate forcing large car owners to stop externalizing their problems. There's more to do, but this is a good move. Not the final move, not the best move, just a good move.
