    About nobody wants those cars here in Europe. They are too big for the roads, do not fit in any normal parking lot, and they guzzle gas as if it cost nothing.

    That some of those cars are actually not considered road-worthy here for some very good reasons is just the icing on the cake.

      And yet, people are using loopholes to import them to Europe for vanity reasons. All it takes is enough of them on the road, then lobbying by manufactures to buy some politicians and then it’ll be a flood of these monstrosities destroying cities.

      Scaremongering? Maybe. Very possible? Yes, very much so. The EU has to defend its cities from these machines or you’ll get US levels of children dying on the roads from crashes. It can happen anywhere if people let it.
