It's pretty obvious (and research showed) that heavier trucks/cars are more dangerous/lethal to pedestrians/cyclists/other drivers, but mindblowing that IIHS only in 2023(!) started estimating the [very different] rate at which [specific makes of] cars kill drivers in other vehicles. Policymakers are starting to take notice too. “I’m concerned about the increased risk of severe injury and death for all road users from heavier curb weights,” Jennifer Homendy, NTSB chair, said in a speech last year.
