Vehicle attacks are becoming more common. The pickup truck attack that killed 14 bystanders in New Orlean's came less than two weeks after a car attack at a German Christmas market killed five and injured more than 200.

They should invent a new term for when someone uses vehicles for manslaughter.

Deliberately running your vehicles into people to kill them isn’t manslaughter, it’s murder.

Okay you got me there. I should rephrase my sarcasm to be vehicular homicide.

The 'generic' pickup truck, as opposed to the exploding vehicle in vegas, that absolutely everyone in the U.S. knows the make and model of. Do you guys even see your own bias?

If it'd been a Lamborghini Countach LP500 we'd know that too... How important is the distinction between a Silverado and an Avalanche considering?

The UK has big concrete eff-off barriers where they think this is a risk.

I think using a car as a weapon of murder is about as cowardly as using a gun to kill someone from a distance. And I will go to my grave not understanding why someone feels the urge to kill strangers.

Newer vehicles are fitted with crash avoidance measures. Should it not be mandatory and impossible to disable it?

It's legal in New Orleans if people are blocking the road....we've given people the greenlight to do this type of shit, or at least signaled acceptance of it which is fucking crazy.

Normal reason for use of a vehicle is the lack of access to firearms. Plus, in high pressure situations, successfully using a firearm takes countless hours of training & a cool head. Defending against vehicle attacks is far easier than the levels of specialists needed to counter gun attacks.

A car in the wrong has at a minimum is a 2000lb weapon of mass destruction, like a 16" shell from a battleship.
