While this is mostly about parking issues, the part that stood out most to me in this is:

A study published in the Journal of Safety Research last year found that children were eight times more likely to die when struck by an SUV than those struck by a passenger car.

Eight times! To me, that’s insane. Even if it were 50% that would be very bad, but this is 700% more!

    And those children dying are just too weak.
    They should either toughen up, or at least wear inflatable airbag-suits if they’re going to use public spaces.
    Though it is also pretty shocking that their careless parents let them walk anywhere.
