alt Hacker NewsProblem isn't the cars. Stop buying uselessly oversized SUVs, and trucks in case of muricans.
A Fiat 500/Panda is perfectly fine in cities.

I’d like to see the calculation of the reduction you get in roadway throughput by making the vehicles larger.
If people stay further away from tractor trailers, they’ll stay further away from SUVs too.
Even in an urban environment, if you stop X feet of distance from the back of the vehicle in front, if that vehicle is longer…
Anyways, street parking should be paid by the square foot * 1.25 to account for getting in/out/around parked vehicles.
Start charging taxes based on the number of square feet a car occupies and the problem will solve itself.
