As a road user (walker, cyclist, occasional runner) I consider small vehicles that are easy to see around and above far safer than heavy, bulky vehicles. Cars aren't designed for the safety of anyone but their occupants, though. |

This is not the case. Part of the reason that all new cars from large manufacturers are as bulky looking as they are is to conform with US pedestrian collision regulations.
While I applaud this initiative, I'd like to be able to buy a smaller, nimbler car and simply avoid hitting pedestrians.
