Specifically this regulation, the distinction between passenger and non passenger vehicles. A Lexus NX SUV should be considered and regulated as a passenger vehicle except for its 28 degree sloping chin giving it a “non passenger” vehicle exemption. This means it can avoid a slew of pedestrian safety measures.
