In Orlando a lady in a huge monster truck drove her machine on top of a Lamborghini sports car in the parking lot of Crunch Fitness. Because she couldn't see the car.

Not fake, confirmed by journalists. https://www.nu.nl/325970/video/bestuurder-parkeert-pick-uptruck-op-peperdure-lamborghini-in-vs.html

It would have helped indirectly, though, because people wouldn't get them for driving around in.

It should also be mandatory to have a special professional driver's licence to drive any work vehicle, with regular medical checkups.

In any sane environment, that should automatically require the driver to have a special professional driver's licence, but they are instead exempt from lots of rules.

"Stephen Miller arrested for accidentally discharging AR-15 into Pete Hegseth's Nazi tattoo." <- comparable hypothetical incident.

Sadly, a large number of idiots in the us, Canada, and Mexico for the most part, somehow cannot realize this fact. They instead think it's cool to lift these vehicles to unsafe geometries and drive them like sport cars. I see this every f#cking day! An increase in the amount and manner of these vehicles should directly correlate to the dramatic increase in the level of stupidity in the general population..

The man denied committing any crimes. He claimed that visibility from the car downward was extremely poor due to factors such as the window frames, the car’s height, and the shape of the front end.

This is so rich I saw this posted the other day.

What was that again about visibility out of these things?

I'm grown up in the 80's. Back then we'd call those monster trucks.

It's just that they now not only drive in those arenas anymore.
