my guess for 'wider lanes increasing crashes' is that having everyone further apart makes them feel like there's more room for error so people drive less cautiously.

@luke_cohen1

Жыл бұрын

That's partly it but there's another thing we haven't taken into account: wider lanes means less lanes on the road itself. This makes it harder for slower drivers to move so faster drivers can pass them since everyone has less lanes to work with. Plus, the global population's median age has increased over time and we all know the issues older drivers cause on the road. This had lead to greater speed disparities on the road and has caused more accidents and traffic jams as a result since faster/busier drivers get a lot more pissed off and reckless. A two lane road shouldn't be a hassle to travel on but it becomes one when a 65-75 year old grandma going 5-10 mph (8-16 km/h) under the speed limit is at the front of a line slowing everyone else down behind them. The angrier the drivers behind them get, the more likely they will do something drastic to get around them and that will increase the risk of accidents if that driver isn't calculated enough to make such a maneuver safely.

That's part of it but additionally the smaller the lane the faster your brain thinks you're going. So on a smaller road you will subconsciously drive slower than on a bigger road because it seems to you that you're going much faster than you actually are.

I know it's a sensitive topic, but I'd also like to bring up the obesity rate in America. A growing portion of the American populace cannot comfortably fit in many of the cars that were popular 20+ years ago. I know that sounds like I'm joking, but I'm being genuine.

When I was working as a carpenter, I looked into getting a truck and my main problem with all of them was the height. You get a truck to haul your tools, all these trucks were too tall for me to grab a tool from the bed without hopping up into it. I had no need for a massive hunk of metal just to bring my ~200 lbs of tools to a site. Heck, put in a lumber rack and I could probably be better off with a short bed and extended cab. When Telsa unveiled the CYBERTRUCK I was actually bummed. A KZreadr had converted her Model 3 into a truck by replacing the back seats with a bed and mounting a lumber rack. That was WAY more of a truck for me than an armored behemoth made for the end of the world.

I was thinking when he said that, that the only reason they got faster is for manufacturers to brag about it. In day to day life size is more important (at least in Europe) because many of those bigger cars are the worst when it comes to finding a place to park somewhere. They literally can't be fitted in some place that is supposed to be able to have one car. They take up almost 2 car spaces. I would prefer to cars even get a little slower for the safety reasons and remain their size instead of getting faster and thus bigger so they can fit all those safety features that would not have to be there

It had a larger footprint than the big work-van parked next to it, while just having 2 doors. It's as though the designers went out of their way to make the body as long and wide as possible. I call it the Lincoln Continent.

None have kids and none haul anything.

Europe (Czech Republic): Minimal width of line without any signs: 2.5m (even in curves). Some older roads do not even have width signs and the width is about 2m in each direction. It is up to you so slow down from 90/100kph to an appropriate speed (and get 2 wheels out of the road) if you are passing some big vehicle and find a spot to do it safely (not in curves, not under trees). There are some crashes due to this.

You know what hasn't gotten bigger but has gotten smaller? A Large Pizza Hut pan pizza. I ordered one a few months ago, got home, opened it and thought they gave me a medium by mistake. I remember a large being HUGE when we used to eat there in the 90s. Now its tiny.

Man, do I agree with you! I've used up 4 Datsun 620 pickup's and still have a very nice one that would sell for a high enough price that I ought to sell it. Can't really stand the idea of using it up. Those pickup's would haul 99% of anything hauled by the "obscene" pickup's on the road today. I now have the last "standard" cab Toyota Tacoma made of reasonable size. A 2011. Its a clumsy behemoth compared to what we used to buy but tiny compared to what is being offered now.

The Toyota pickup truck that Marty drove in 1985 wasn't a Tacoma. It was simply called the Toyota Pickup. The name for the Toyota Tacoma didn't come out until the mid 90s.

thank you for answering this question. this question keeps bugging me since the year 2010.

I've always wondered why cars started getting phat in the early/mid 2000s. Thought it was some weird style trend only, counterintuitive to fuel economy. I like small cars because they are easier to turn and park in small spaces. But I know I'd like a full SUV for carrying stuff and camping.

11:20 - The SUVs people buy with base engines like 2.5L turbo 4 cylinders need to be revved out a lot more to get into the power that's needed to make big vehicles move. And that just means the engine falls apart sooner because it is overstressed. It won't actually save money in the long run and will lead to more waste because vehicles will fail sooner. No replacement for displacement still rings true. Throwing on a turbo just means your choosing to amplify a certain part of the engine's power curve. Which means sacrificing peak horsepower for more low-end grunt or vice versa. Even with variable turbo technology you are stressing the engine out quite significantly for what usually ends up being very little fuel savings in larger vehicles.

@borla4491

Yep. Like I said in the other posts. If Vehicle Manufactures , are concerned about Fuel Economy and Performance. They can always make V8 Smaller Block Engines of 4.0 Liters to 3.8 Liters. Turbochargers and Superchargers can be options . While V8 Engines of Big Blocks and Small Blocks of 7.5 Liters and 5.0 Liters can be options also. They got the technology to make the engines also Straight Forward when it comes to not having complications and be Fuel Efficient.

No disadvantage for diesel (cold exhaust =no turbo wear,no knock=no limits on boost pressure, quality control=no lag, better engine housing to withstand diesel cycle no engine wear due to increased pressure). And for SI 5 years back it was ok as long as 1L=100hp. Now with Atkinson cycle and electrically supported turbos maybe a nice super-cap combo lag is manageable and increased torque can be traded for better economic at lower loads. So do not worry to much. While both waste-gate and variable turbo work best at one operating point as you point out, hybridization can completely make up for that. plus they can still operate over a wider band of rpm and at least support the engine a little. The torque curve should be designed for the task so that you do not need to rev to 4000rpm to get the turbo going. And i mean you could always either get power or eco and a modern turbo lets you decide with a kiss to the throttle. The times of turbos needing additional cooling by flooding them with fuel are over.

@Saint Fifty One for gasoline, yes. For diesel, no. Appart from the price neiter the added complexity nor the maintenance is enourmous. I mean in the Rally Dakar some manufacturers went from 4WD to 2WD because it is less maintenance, but they kept turbos. If you need a transporter for the cheapest price and low end torque, sure go for the 3L NA version, but in all other cases...

Depends large SUVs like Expedition, Tahoe 100% need that bigger engine. Min V6 Turbo putting in a 4 banger is such a large vehicle is dumb and no efficient. Smaller SUVs like the CRV and Ford escape can get away with a smaller Turbo 4 cylinder, biggest issue is maintenance. People never maintain their oil and its always been an issue. Now with Turbo engines becoming more popular those engines need regular oil changes because they will always burn a little oil and run hot.

Fords engine was an overheating lemon, and Hondas engine didn't like head gaskets very much and was constantly diluting oil. The compact SUV segment is just stupid from the get go. People are paying more for a car that sits slightly higher on the road. 99% of buyers would be more than fine with a full sized sedan or wagon. And if people are always in need of the little extra space, they could probably use the larger engine as well.
