I mean, parking with a big car would be more of a nightmare than it is already in small-sized europe.

I guess that's the actual objective. Making driving unbearable

This should be an easy fix for France (or any country). Don't make dumb laws.

Oh no, how would small dick rich parisians even compensate with that law in place?!

I mean, i agree. The amount of American sized cars i see in the netherlands nowadays is a lot.

But they are pretty awesome cars so i get why someone would want one.

And those are usually still small versions of the ones they actually sell in the US

Little weirdos are obsessed with the US. Buy whatever you want, why they gotta try to make this about America when this is just about European buying habits?

The Guardian is making this about the American... The Paris vote was framed around big cars ("SUV").

Are we not discussing the article? We are using this website differently, I guess.

[–] LemmysMum@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yes we are, the rest of us are cognizant of more than just the article. You should try it some time.

Rude and wrong.

We love many great trends from youe coumtry: your music, your TV shows,... Some of us also love some not so great trends like your oversized cars. You don't have to get on your high horse to spite us, we can do it ourselves.
