Or should we just ban big trucks in cities?

How do we move stuff? Toss your washer and dryer on top of your Tesla? Contractors load up big trucks daily, filled to the brim with siding, garage doors, electric supplies, you name it. It is a standard. The only people not following it are the city. Those trucks are as wide as they've been for 30 years. Those bike lanes have only been there for two or three if the paint is anything to go by. What's the hold up? I guess nobody at City Hall has a proper tape measure.

Cool, double standards are ok if it's someone else's problem. You sure you're so far removed from a conservative?
