This bans this stupid alignment on your pickup that causes the dashboard to be elevated in a way that blocks visuals on the highway. Its killed a few people. Around here they call it the "carolina squat". Virginia just banned it irl.

I have bought a new SUV today. I now love the Carolina Squat! Solid no on this bill when it gets to a final vote, which, to be clear, I still favor happening!

A final vote on this bill is now open for 72 hours, or until 24 hours after this has enough votes to pass or fail, or until everybody votes, whichever occurs soonest.
