Driver faces hit-run homicide

The first part of the headline does a fair job of pointing out the murder.

The issue is not so much size but height. These things are all over where I am as fleet vehicles and even the good ol’ type will comment that they can not see anything in front. Just look at the door or normal car in the background of that picture and you get an idea. These hoods are no joke 1.7 meters high for no other reason then to look mean.

I remember some of my favourite spaces in the city I lived in where narrow valleys between buildings like this. The trick for light (enough for a great garden) was to hang cheap mirrors on the top part of each side wall.
