Bigger cars do WAY more damage. To pedestrians, the impact is higher on the body and far more lethal; and to other vehicles, well that’s obvious.
I think you’re right though, with simplified physics the additional traction does cancel out the additional momentum.
But wider tyres and expensive brakes actually don’t make a difference. More contact with the ground just reduces the traction per area, total traction hasn’t changed (assuming a smooth road). As for brakes, as long as they’re strong enough to lock the wheel, that’s enough. ABS helps a little, but expensive designs are only useful if you’re in a race.
Imagine if speed limits were variable based on a car’s weight and lethality. Only small cars are allowed to go fast.


Working on my backlog is literally all of my gaming. Currently catching up on the old Assassin’s Creed games. Well worth it.
Exactly. This post actually reinforces why I don’t want to alter my reality. That little window of interpretation is absolutely remarkable, it’s all we have to anchor us to the outside world and I will never give that up. Not that I’m dead against occasional hallucinogenics, but our perception is an amazing thing and I feel bad for people who don’t appreciate it.

I miss that games were completely finished and polished, put on a disk, and never touched again.
If they do that’s probably softer tyres and aerodynamics. Maybe suspension and weight distribution. Many factors anyway.
