Taller hoods are a major contributor to crashes that kill pedestrians.
"More evidence is piling up that extra-tall vehicle hoods, increasingly common on American trucks and SUVs, are more dangerous to pedestrians."
"...Data from the 1990s found that a pedestrian hit by a light truck was two to three times more likely to be killed, with another study finding that light trucks were twice as likely to injure a pedestrian than a car, especially at low speed.” >>

Consumer Reports has been sending me a bunch of petitions recently. The most recent one is against massive pickup trucks which huge blindspots https://action.consumerreports.org/20221116_stop_blindspots. I think this kind of action can make a difference. It's a little reminder that the government is supposed to listen to the people and serve and protect them.

People who bike Casa Verde in #Monterey as part of their route: Be extra alert for wide vehicles headed to RV campsites at #MontereyFair and Event Center.
Didn’t get a photo of white Sunset trailer pulled by pickup on Casa Verde 7/28, but have a vivid image of them in mind. What made them special?
After several trucks towing trailers, and other RVs, passed us on our bicycle—each giving us plenty of room—the Sunset one came inches from hitting us. (Seems the driver forgot the trailer they were pulling was wider than their pickup!) As they passed us, we saw that they were the only one that had bicycles on the back of their vehicle! #FunnyNotFunny
Tips for drivers of trucks and other big vehicles—and for people who bike around them: https://bikemonterey.org/truck-bus-bicycle.html
History on some bike advocacy re: #CasaVerde, which is a mostly narrow street—no major improvements to most of it since 2011 bike audit: https://bikemonterey.org/casa-verde-near-fremont-in-monterey-and-other-developments-also-monterey-county-fair-event-center-bicycle-parking.html

"Looking at more granular data, Tyndall also finds that #CompactSUV increase the probability of death by 63 percent relative to a #car, #PickupTrucks increase the probability by 68 percent relative to a car, and full-size #SUV increase the probability by 99 percent. (Vans were overrepresented in minor crashes, and the increased probability of a pedestrian dying when hit by a van was not significant.)"
