Doctrine of ‘Big Is Beautiful’ Still Rules the Road

Re “Car Culture’s Excess Rolls Toward Oblivion,” Commentary, May 31: Oh, would that it were true! Jane Holtz Kay asks questions whether “big is beautiful” has changed to “clean is correct.” If the current auto shows are an indication, with a 1,000-horsepower Cadillac a standout, our obsession with gas-guzzling giants on the road is not waning. It is sickening to consider the human cost as well as the environmental disasters.
