Unfortunately trees, concrete pillars, and brick walls are unlikely to comply with safety restrictions on weight. Georgia was ridiculed a few years back for prohibiting trees between the road and the sidewalk under the theory that a car that wanders off the road can recover its intended path of there aren't trees in the way. Lightweight cars would still be lethal to pedestrians but also would make the elimination of trees and street furniture between the road and the sidewalk more desirable.
