... in the US
Where doesn't this happen? Tell me the country and I will find the stats.
Australia?
This may help compare... though its not apples to apples...

Cars striking pedestrians happens everywhere. However, in other developed countries, the rate has been in decline for like 50 years. The US was in decline until the late 90s, or sometime in the 2000s. It then started to rise, and the rise began increasing in rate. Now the US is a drastic stand out for how many pedestrians are hit, especially fatally, compared to countries of relatively similar infrastructure development.
Ooh it's not the drivers fault, how do you want to see small children with such a huge truck ? /s
That's fair.
I referenced "constantly" but ok...
A country? Probably Vatican city or some small island where there is like 0 cars.
The US has a 1:48k pedestrian/population death rate. For comparison Germany has a 1:200k ratio.
God damn trucks. Fucking enormous ass trucks. And these stupid fucking vehicles are sold like hotcakes to everyone and their mother.
honestly wonder how many of these events were large modern trucks with ridiculous, pedestrian eating 4' tall hoods.
4' is nothing, many of them where I live (which is actually featured in one of the above articles) come up to my almost-avg-height shoulders, and a good number are even higher
This is the first one, in Forest Hills.
