This is horrible but why did I have to know that it’s two tons?

Because we're all living in this weird daze, where we seem to just accept massive, heavy things are moving through our streets at high speed, being controlled by humans. And said humans only had to prove they could go around a suburban block, and not hit anything, to get license to drive such things.

When you stop and think about it, it's really a crazy world we live. And it gets even crazier once you realize 2 tons is on the low end nowadays.

A daze which may, in part, have to do with the emissions from said machines which are known to negatively impact cognitive function in humans :(

That's the way it's been for a recent period of time in human development and will probably be the case for the forseeable future. Humans do a lot of insane things.
