Currently my gf is taking driving lessons and we where just talking about driving big cars and trucks

Personally I do not feel safe driving a big car or truck simply because the bigger the vehicle the harder it is to controll it and my gf feels the same

I hear other people say they feel not safe in smaller cars because everyone around them is driving a tank and I also understand that I guess

At the end of the day I just leave the car I don't have and take the electric bike 🚲⚡
