The photo attached to this story is of a large pick-up truck that has its box dangerously sticking out into the road.

91裸聊视频淒oes that look like it fits in the space?91裸聊视频 asks Tim Bracken, who posted the photo on X, the site formerly known as Twitter. 91裸聊视频淧robably the most off road driving this thing will ever do.91裸聊视频

The post was accompanied by the hashtag #Banoversizedtrucks.

The idea of a ban is likely to never go anywhere, but there are a lot of people who live and work in downtown Victoria who love the idea because they say oversized trucks are a menace in an area that isn91裸聊视频檛 designed for them.

More and more, Victoria is turning into a place that is made for pedestrians and cyclists, with new bike lanes being added every year. Many downtown streets that were designed decades ago can barely handle today91裸聊视频檚 cars and SUVs, with little-to-no room for larger pick-up trucks.

91裸聊视频淚 say ban them,91裸聊视频 said Colin Smithe, who moved to Victoria a few months ago. 91裸聊视频淲hat I love about the downtown Victoria streets is many of them are now designed for cyclists. That91裸聊视频檚 what we should be looking at, not allowing oversized trucks. Those things are dangerous. Outside of the downtown core is fine, but get rid of these beasts.91裸聊视频

One person who would likely agree is Nell Saba, who regularly posts photos online of her standing in front of oversized pick-up trucks.

One recent post drew a lot of responses.

91裸聊视频淭hese trucks are so dangerously absurd to the point where I will no longer even consider purchasing another (normal) vehicle from the companies that sell them,91裸聊视频 wrote one person.

91裸聊视频淚n Europe you need a C license to drive one of these, and it is expensive and you need skill to get it,91裸聊视频 wrote another.

91裸聊视频淭hese vehicles should be banned,91裸聊视频 wrote another.

Another person pointed out that apart from the trouble of parking these trucks or going around narrow street corners downtown is the issue of if drivers of trucks that high can actually see pedestrians in front of them.

What do you think? Please let us know (respectfully).
