I rmeember GT4 looking a lot better lol
After that, cars started turning into the homogenized soulless blobs we see today because "muh safety" and don't get me started on the atrocious SUVs and pickup trucks.
"Muh safety" is actually important, however in the name of "muh safety" SUV's should be outright banned, and pick up trucks should only be allowed for those with professional requirements for them. There's absolutely no reason for gigantic cars, especially tall cars, whose bonnet is pretty much the height of a 10 year old, sometimes even a smaller adult. Other than to overcompensate for a small dick, of course.
I agree. However, Safety is important but it doesnt have to get in the way of car design. 80s 90s and early 00s cars weren't exactly death traps. Just make it way harder to get a drivers license so there's less idiots driving.
That would also help reducing air and noise pollution.
