I agree, nothing more infuriating than some obtuse person buying a big vehicle as a form of “protection” for themselves.
We see plenty of these individuals on the road, they think because they’re driving some Escalade, Cherokee , X5, etc they don’t have to pay attention or are worse drivers because they got a “big car”.

A pedestrian crash rating is an interesting option as well. A more "in your face" rating on cars might deter some people from buying them and it would also be another method in which to tax the shit out of these things.
