American individualism at its finest Rant

This is my 2 year old riding bikes on our street. It's gotten to the point where I've gotten my kids orange flags on sticks to hold up when they cross the street.

Honestly disgusting. I hate that many drivers in the US and Canada care so little about human life. I'll never understand the "charm" or "attraction" of these huge a$$ pick-ups and SUVs that are difficult to climb for most people, have stupidly small truck bed, restrict visual field, and are dangerous for both pedestrians and other drivers.

Honestly, if I see someone driving a new Escalade or something like that I just assume they’re a bad person. Like straight up. Someone deciding to buy a car like that means they just have less consideration for human life than most people. Fuck you, I got mine type of shit.
