  7. Higher, longer, wider and heavier #cars kill #pedestrians (and other #VulnerableRoadUsers). #SUV hood height is the most significant factor.

    "high-front-end designs are specifically culpable for higher pedestrian #Death rates, and this is not driven by other characteristics that are correlated with front-end height.
    [Every] 4-inch (100-mm) increase in front end height translates to a 28 percent increase in pedestrian death."

  12. CW: Sarcasm about children, cars, disease

    #VRU is a new term for toddlers, often referred to as disease-vectors during flu-season.

    > “We have low exposure to small #VRUs” — #VulnerableRoadUsers, a reference to #children — “so very few events to estimate risk from,” the materials say. Another section concedes #CruiseVehicles’ “lack of a high-precision Small VRU classifier,” or machine learning software that would automatically detect child-shaped objects
