Just make the children taller
You maybe could if you increased welfare, but US is doing excellent job driving it to the ground
The M1 Abrams main battle tank, mind. This diagram indicates nothing about the M1 Garand or M1 carbine.
M1 helmet is probably pretty safe. M1 chemical landmine, probably not
M1 chemical landmine, probably not
Well not with that attitude it ain’t. Children need to learn this stuff you know
the children yearn for the mines
I can’t imagine a ten year old boy who wouldn’t be up for throwing rocks at land mines
Where is this from?
Starship Troopers
I was not wondering this but now I’m wondering why you were wondering this
Driving their MBT is a “there will be signs”. OP won the lottery and was worried about school zones, like all responsible MBT operators.
Honestly good on OP. We could use more good role models to show the youngins what responsible tank ownership is all about.
It’ll be important to watch out for children if Ukraine moves into Crimea.
Friendliest IDF soldier
You could add the “I♥️Gaza” sign in the tank path. They love filming themselves running over signs
But what about Bubba Joe’s lifted F-350 dually with the extra huge exhaust pipes and big big American flags? He’s a real patriot so there’s no way it’s worse than all of these vehicles.
Worse? It’s more deadly than an M1 Abrams! Deadly is cool.
They really need to adjust their aim. They’re just grazing those kids.

Not totally true because my sierra 2500 has cameras in the front, shows you what’s immediately ahead if you’re going less than 15 mph or so. Beeps like crazy and vibrates your asshole if there’s something in front.
…vibrates your asshole…
There is SO much to unpack in just three words! Omg 🤣
one with the stickshift copypasta intensifies
Yeah but presumably the parent in the M1 has a spouse operating a surveillance drone to provide real time
firechild correction?Typically they don’t operate without infantry support, so they’d likely be in radio contact with forward observers. But yes, in some circumstances it could be a reconnaissance UAV.
Thank you this kind of comment is why I come here.
vibrates your asshole if there’s something in front.
Rush hour traffic must get interesting
Fucking sold, goin to the nearest Sierra dealership rn
Is that why big trucks tailgate me? They just want their asshole tickled?
They want you to get your dumbass out of the passing lane.
Drives slower
Go fuck yourself
Neat. You just caused a major traffic jam that’ll back up for miles. Very social. Very responsible.
The fact that this needs to exist is absolutely ridiculous
Having the engine at the back of the vehicle always helps.
A BMW M1 sports car, produced 1978-81, only sits 1.14m tall, it’s probably got even better sight lines.
If they are to drive an armored vehicle on public roads during peace time, even the military necessitates a vehicle commander standing out of his hatch with direct communications with the driver so he can have an overview of what’s around the vehicle and compensate for the driver’s blind spots. It is a basic safety rule.
What, no driving an MBT into a school zone with all hatches closed? I’m sure we’re all very shocked at this revelation.
Also he needs to be up there to hit them with his sword.
American trucks are fucking stupid
Man imagine if that was an enforced rule
Like, Trucknuts McGee isn’t even allowed to move into a house that’s too close to the school because he’s driving something that’s better rated as an Armored Personnel Transport than as a passenger car.
I had to verify. My Ram Power Wagon is 1.45 meters (57”) at the hood height. I’d consider it closer to 60” at full top since it’s so squared off, but who’s counting….
Ryan Fortnine made this point by climbing inside the engine compartment of a Dodge Ram.
They didn’t modify the truck and dude is over 6’ tall.
Easy fix- short drivers and lift kits should be factored in with a ban. If it saves even one Power Wagon from a dent, isn’t that worth a ban?
No
Only an issue of a toddler literally sneaks in front of you when you’re stopped. Not an issue while driving and almost completely out of the realm of possibility in every day driving.
I once heard a story from someone who drives a small car. They were waiting at some traffic lights. A huge ute with terrible front visibility stopped behind them. Then, 30 seconds later, the ute driver forgot there was a car in front of him and drove forward, crashing into the small car. His excuse was “I forgor 💀”
American style utes are monstrosities.
Are you Australian by any chance? I’ve never heard anyone else use the term “ute”. Just wondering :)
It’s a utility vehicle, mate. I know Americans call them trucks, but over here you need a commercial licence to drive a truck, because they’re big and they’re dangerous if driven by someone without the proper training. American trucks have nothing on actual trucks, though thanks to irresponsible legislation they have many times the death toll.
I understand, it’s just that I’ve never heard that term outside of Australia. I was just wondering.
I agree that the term “truck” for both a HGV and a pickup is super confusing and I made that mistake myself earlier in the thread.
Truly idiots live among us. I don’t think it was the choice of car that caused the accident but what he lacked in his skull.
Well people are always going to be idiots, so we shouldn’t give them the tools to cause accidents like this
