Text: Amazon’s electric cargo bikes have arrived in DC.

Response text from high t alpha shemale @gluetaster: that’s not a cargo bike man that’s a loopholemobile
Edit: I found a slightly higher-quality version of the image:
It wasn’t a bill, and even if it had been it would have been signed by Bush. It was the NHTSA that changed the rules, back when they were actually trying to do things in service to the public. It was an attempt to close a loophole that resulted in a bigger loophole.
And nobody wins from the current regs. Auto companies still hate it. You think it’s their preference to make bigger cars that are more expensive to manufacture? You think they don’t want to be able to make small, cheap trucks and vans?
