Response text from high t alpha shemale @gluetaster: that’s not a cargo bike man that’s a loopholemobile
Loopholemobile, oh yeah for sure, still waaayyyy better than a whole ass SUV.
Aren’t SUVs the loophole mobiles? They’re classified as trucks to avoid the gas guzzler tax.
They’re loophole mobiles too! They should just introduce the same rules as Japan and aspire k cars to flourish
I am amazed at how this is mostly not mentioned in more upvoter comments. If kei trucks were not outlawed in the US
for having the driver see the road too wellthis wouldn’t exist, most likelyI actually just saw a kei truck in fucking Arkansas of all places!
Smaller trucks would make more sense and be better for the drivers aswell, though overall we’re marginally against same day/next day delivery. That way drivers and workers can take more time and not be rushed delivering things constantly
As someone from elsewhere I can’t even imagine same day delivery, tbh
Amazon offers it in nyc and it usually results a lot of their warehouse deliveries spilled across the sidewalks
