> In fact, nearly everything terrible about cars in the last decade can be traced to regulations in some way.

I think the reason we even need backup cameras now is that visibility is so poor on modern vehicles. I think that in turn is due to increasing the height of the bottom of the windows for better airbags. I’m sure it’s great in a crash, but visibility is also a safety concern.

Not all of it is regulations though, but lot of common complaints.
