    No, still not safe. Even relatively heavier small vehicles fold like paper in a crash. Also, at least in my country, banning pickups would cripple the local economy and instantly result in riots. Most farmers would just get fucked

    Trying a crash in a light vehicle is up to you, I’ll be sure to remember to bring roses for your grave

      I live in a rural area and only about 2% of the pickups I see have anything in the back or any sign of being used off-road. Anyone who is moving stuff is using a tractor and trailer or a van.

        Here every farmer has a beaten up, old piece of junk gas guzzler Zamiad truck, they move produce with it. Take that away and they’re practically fucked. Vans require a van license and are expensive as fuck, and trailers are basically unheard of and I think against road regulations
