I really enjoyed the well researched video Fortnine put together on how grille height is the greatest predictor of pedestrian collision fatality.

My favorite car grille story comes from Lexus.
You might remember when they changed to their current iconic grille:
And people started joking “By your command!”
But the aggressive styling was 100% intentional.
They had found that when a Lexus came up behind someone in traffic, they often would get stuck behind other cars. The grille change was made specifically to intimidate other drivers and get them to move out of the way.
