That bumper is eye level with me. He could have probably decapitated me if he reversed with enough determination.

It's hard out there for small car people when everyone else is in an arms race to be as big as possible.

Higher bumper heights reduce close range visibility and increase pedestrian mortality and injury in collisions. The reduced visibility has increased risk of running over children and pets hidden in the blind spots.

These tall trucks are also provide bad visibility for people on bikes or bicycles
