I currently drive a car that is a little over four feet tall. I regularly pull up to intersections and try to turn corners where my roofline is below the bottom of the windows of the megatrucks next to me. So yes, the arms race is real, and my next car will be taller and bigger.

I think it's fair to tax bigger cars higher. They take up more road space, they take up more parking space. Should pay more by % of oversize.
