From my earlier post about larger cars, my proposed solution (inspired by @markusl with reduced speed limits for big cars) is that we should set momentum limits for the roads. If you've got a bigger car, your maximum speed is lower automatically because mass x velocity is capped. So if the motorway speed limit was 70 mph for a 1300 kg Ford Focus, it should be 40 mph for a 2250 kg Range Rover.
Also, 🙄 to all the mansplainers who replied to the rhetorical question.
@helenczerski@markusl interesting idea, tax tend to only affect those who can’t afford them, like it.
In a similar vein, Paris is implementing a weight based parking tax to reduce SUV usage
