If there's anything we should take from Japan, it's treating cars like second class citizens behind transit instead of the other way around. The cute tiny cars are more a side effect of that.

Did you read what I wrote? I am in favor of Kei trucks. I just want them to put in better crumple zones and airbags first.

Do you disagree with airbags? I really don't know what you're getting at. I know you threw on the /s at the end but that still doesn't make your post make sense.

    Yeah, but at that point, don’t you have something like the Honda fit? Cars that already are sold in the us, but don’t do well? We don’t need a new class of vehicles as much as we need to encourage better choices among the ones we already have
