For some SUVs, the front blind zone is so large that you can have 12 children sitting in front of the car and the driver cannot see them.

Also these cars will hit cyclists and pedestrians in the upper body rather than lower body, killing more often.

You just have to wonder how a car where the driver's line of vision start at 3 meters in front of the car can satisfy any safety standards.

Something I didn't know because I'm just a European: Because of this blind spot issue, some school buses in the US and Canada have a device that forces children to cross away from the bus so the driver can see them
