While this is mostly about parking issues, the part that stood out most to me in this is:

A study published in the Journal of Safety Research last year found that children were eight times more likely to die when struck by an SUV than those struck by a passenger car.

Eight times! To me, that's insane. Even if it were 50% that would be very bad, but this is 700% more!

    (because we don’t think of the the children inside or outside of the car)

    No, children inside cars are thought of, much like anybody else, it's why we keep having "safer" cars, enforced by regulations, that are actively detrimental to everybody not in a car or an older car due to more weight, more bulkiness, less visibility
