This is not out in some rural town. This is in Portland, OR about 2 miles from downtown. Personal vehicles this large are simply incompatible with urban living and pressure their owners to continually break traffic law. Technically that Miata is parked as close to the stop sign as it can legally be, but as the Denali doesn’t fit in many places around here it’s owner is compelled to park across both the stop sign and the crosswalk.
Is it really a regulatory and infrastructure issue? I would have guessed the truck owner is just an entitled asshole.
Assholes exist everywhere. But if you regulate against this sort of vehicle and design infrastructure that does not accommodate them, the local assholes can not / will not asshole in this specific way.
I assume you live in the US? How likely do you think such a regulation is in your lifetime?
Likely enough that it’s worth ignoring pessimism to the contrary, though if I had to bet on what ends luxury jumbo trucks I’d wager that the economic entropy of the market takes the prize first, and I am confident that will happen in my lifetime.
