    Or we could just tighten the regulations on large vehicles, rather than removing the whole system which is a net good over all.

    Best not to throw the baby out with the bathwater.

      Well it doesn’t look like a net good right now. We have a million oversized trucks everywhere. We could have the same number of trucks, but smaller, for the same or less gas consumption. It would also be less dangerous to pedestrians and easier on the roads. Less tire wear and tear, and so on.
