Well yeah but something like this shouldn't be on a public road, the visibility would be terrible and it would be so easy to run over people or animals or small vehicles

You should certainly drive with more caution than a typical vehicle; but you've still got to get fuel and travel between storage and wherever you're having fun.

A trailer + a vehicle to tow it isn't always available/practical.

Point is, it's likely not on public roads often or very long. It's not like it would be out getting groceries and picking up the kids from school every day.

Tbh, regarding visibility; it doesn't seem any worse than a semi truck. Probably has better stopping power too.
