Solution is simple: tax and regulate. These large vehicles come with externalities including contributing to global warming, increased road wear, increased use of road and parking space, and higher rates of pedestrian injury and fatality.

So, tax them so the owners pay for those externalities, and/or regulate to prevent them in the first place. This is an entirely solvable problem if governments, and the people they represent, really care.
