The M1 Abrams main battle tank, mind. This diagram indicates nothing about the M1 Garand or M1 carbine.
M1 chemical landmine, probably not
Well not with that attitude it ain't. Children need to learn this stuff you know
But what about Bubba Joe's lifted F-350 dually with the extra huge exhaust pipes and big big American flags? He's a real patriot so there's no way it's worse than all of these vehicles.
Man imagine if that was an enforced rule
Like, Trucknuts McGee isn't even allowed to move into a house that's too close to the school because he's driving something that's better rated as an Armored Personnel Transport than as a passenger car.
And we don't really drive "trucks" anyway, not as they know them in the US.
SUVs are getting annoyingly common though.
No, I did really think that the OP meant "truck" as in "pickup" as most Americans refer to them. Now the original comment makes much more sense too!
It's definitely starting here too. Of course it's not as bad as the US but seeing those huge Dodg Rams or whatever is becoming more common. I guess I have to get used to it because I get annoyed every time I see such a car
Yeah, I was gonna say, I've never heard about lifted trucks being banned in school zones.
If they are to drive an armored vehicle on public roads during peace time, even the military necessitates a vehicle commander standing out of his hatch with direct communications with the driver so he can have an overview of what's around the vehicle and compensate for the driver's blind spots. It is a basic safety rule.
What, no driving an MBT into a school zone with all hatches closed? I'm sure we're all very shocked at this revelation.
Driving their MBT is a "there will be signs". OP won the lottery and was worried about school zones, like all responsible MBT operators.
Honestly good on OP. We could use more good role models to show the youngins what responsible tank ownership is all about.
You could add the "I♥️Gaza" sign in the tank path. They love filming themselves running over signs
My homie said he peeled a bloody backpack of some kid out of treads of one of those tanks. Driver started crying and throwing up. Fuckin brutal.
Ryan Fortnine made this point by climbing inside the engine compartment of a Dodge Ram.
They didn't modify the truck and dude is over 6' tall.
A BMW M1 sports car, produced 1978-81, only sits 1.14m tall, it’s probably got even better sight lines.
Not totally true because my sierra 2500 has cameras in the front, shows you what’s immediately ahead if you’re going less than 15 mph or so. Beeps like crazy and vibrates your asshole if there’s something in front.
Neat. You just caused a major traffic jam that'll back up for miles. Very social. Very responsible.
Yeah but presumably the parent in the M1 has a spouse operating a surveillance drone to provide real time fire child correction?
Typically they don't operate without infantry support, so they'd likely be in radio contact with forward observers. But yes, in some circumstances it could be a reconnaissance UAV.
I had to verify. My Ram Power Wagon is 1.45 meters (57”) at the hood height. I’d consider it closer to 60” at full top since it’s so squared off, but who’s counting….
Easy fix- short drivers and lift kits should be factored in with a ban. If it saves even one Power Wagon from a dent, isn't that worth a ban?
