Modern safety requirements on vehicle essentially put a lower bound on vehicle weight. There are requirements both for the passengers of the vehicle and pedestrians.

For example, you can't even make a car without a rear view camera now and sell it in the US. Why? Is looking out the back window really that challenging?

Apparently, otherwise children wouldn't keep getting run over and we wouldn't need backup cameras.
