I think that it’s going to take societal change to stop this from being the norm. In Australia there was a road safety campaign with the slogan:
“Speeding. No one thinks big of you.”
It essentially compared speeding with having a small penis, by using the metaphor of a wiggling pinkie, and thus embarrassing perpetrators.
In other words, it needs to become uncool to drive such a massive vehicle. Perhaps “The bigger the trick, the smaller the …”

Wikipedia does not have an article with this exact name.
Did you mean: Speeding. No one thinks big of you.?
I think you wanted that second period.

Not sure what you mean. When I click the link on my post, it goes to where I intended. Note that I removed an errant period at the end of the URL about an hour ago.

I don’t think that will work. The comparison has been made but doesn’t seem to phase people. I think IED might be only the solution, since the people who drive these don’t seem to care in the least that they are a lethal danger to everyone in a smaller vehicle/on a bike/pedestrian.

Here in Australia, a ram 1500 nearly hit me on my bike by going the wrong way around a roundabout too. They didn’t even slow down to check.
I slammed my brake and swerved.
If they can’t even successfully navigate a right hand turn on a roundabout, they shouldn’t be here. And the drivers park and drive them at a lower standard, instead of higher too

Also, I actually drive a Jeep Unlimited (which is actually a fairly big car). And yet, never had an issue fitting into any of these spots. I’ve literally seen though ute drivers who pull into a spot badly, and not even try to fix the issue. Considering buying some stickers to throw on their windscreen.
