Proponents argue that it would preserve cultural heritage and appeal to those who value traditional designs. Opponents argue that it would stifle innovation and limit the design freedom of car manufacturers.

No, but if your car is really aesthetically disgusting (like cube cars) you should pay an ugliness tax for polluting the public square; the same applies to architecture
@7YS3KJPIndependent 2 days2D
No. I love the aesthetic of classic cars, but why is this a question? Seems like a really pointless use of government time and money, and an arbitrary overreach of federal power.
@979XN3FIndependent 3 days3D
No, it should not be required, but incentivize the preservation of classic aesthetics
No lol. The government shouldn't have any say in artistic expression? This is a funny question.
@9N56KVQ5 days5D
No but I do think that things like the cybertruck are a distraction on the road. Our understanding of aerodynamics will gradually change vehicle shape, so a law like this would get quickly outdated, but certain designs are just a visual distraction problem on the road.
@9MYQ4757 days7D
Regardless, the government should require that all new vehicles be designed to be safer and less likely to harm pedestrians
@9MYP55X1wk1W
That should be an option, but not a required must.
@9MYMGYN1wk1W
There should be both modern and classic design options so the customer has choices.
I support classic automobile aesthetics, but the government should have absolutely nothing to do with this.
@9MX3LPW1wk1W
New vehicle designs need to be approved for safety among roads full on classic designs (i.e. Tesla cybertruck would be incredibly harmful in an accident with a regular car).
@9MVGZBJRepublican1wk1W
The Government does not need to require. It should be up to the manufacturers.
@9MVCVJH1wk1W
No, what type of question is this? It would look super cool though.
@9MV2QCDRepublican1wk1W
Not really, Progress should be allowed and the government should keep its nose out of business and we shouldn't trust the government with cars
@9MS5WLH1wk1W
No, but designed for safety of the driver, pedestrians, and others on the road.
@9MS2G3M1wk1W
not, not required, but to make 2 models of each car. One normal then the other having the classic automobile look.
The decision to preserve classic aesthetics should be encouraged, but the choice ultimately should be up to the manufacturers.
@9MQ8JNS2wks2W
Yes, but only for size of the vehicle for pedestrian safety.
@9MPNYMJ2wks2W
No, this is not a subject that the government should have jurisdiction over
@JcawolfsonIndependent 2wks2W
No, but local/state government - with consent of the governed - may incentivize. Though, the focus should be on efficiency and safety of the vehicles, regardless of the jurisdiction.
@Dry550Independent 2wks2W
No, why should aesthetics and the love of nostalgia hinder design freedom? There are classic cars and there are modern day cars, we can have both
