    Large vehicles period if you ask me, EVs are much heavier than ICE vehicles and can accelerate much faster.

      There are a lot of legitimate use cases for large vehicles in urban areas like construction, mass transit, and shipping.

        I count four reasons:

        • construction and repairs
        • mass transit
        • delivery of foods and goods
        • emergency services and police.

        but a lot of deliveries and repairs can be managed by cargo bike.

        Those could be special use cases driven by properly trained people with a CDL that get a pass or we could find new ways to do things, but there are a shitload of absolutely massive personal vehicles being driven around by people who don’t know wtf they’re doing and people are dying as a direct result.
