There’s a TON of evidence that bigger, higher vehicles are far more likely to kill somone they hit, crushing vital organs & pushing victims under.
But never forget, their weight, height & sightlines also make it far more likely that they’ll hit someone in the first place.

They are more dangerous to both the driver, other drivers, and pedestrians. We've known this, and they keep getting bigger.

Is this built into our BC insurance premiums?
(and is it made transparent so people understand that buying dangerous cars is more expensive?)
Thanks for considering.
