Guess which one of these vehicles has a motor that prevents it from going too fast for the safety of others?

    To be fair that truck is unsafe at any speed.

    Even sitting in the parking lot people bash their legs on the tow hitch.

      I doubt that very much, see as it’s practically at eye-level.

        The height actually makes it worse cause they will often have a drop hitch to get low enough to meet the trailer, this tends to make it even less noticeable that there is a hitch at shin level.

        At the rate many pedestrians are locked into looking down at their phones, eye level obstructions are maybe more dangerous.

      Well, it is a Dodge so it is likely broken down and needs an engine or transmission, or both.

        The drunk driver will still find a way to get it going.
