Sounds like a regulatable problem.

They are already somewhat regulated: In europe, they are considered trucks, not personal cars, so you can't practically use them in the cities, park them on regular parking spots etc.

I feel enforcement is lax in that. I regularly see Dodge Rams parked in regular spots. They usually don't fit in, so they block other spots or traffic.

And that's in the NL. Doesn't look good.

In poland you see them more and more everywhere.

Especially those polished and detailed „trucks”
