You CAN see the high mounted brake light.

When you drive a Yaris in the land of SUVs and F250 pickups, you can't see
****, including traffic signals over an intersection. I'm better off on a bike
where I can stand on the pegs.

Ditto. Here, the guys drive trucks (that have IMMACULATE beds that have
never considered CARRYING anything!) and the gals drive SUV's or minivans.
That just leaves the panel trucks, delivery vehicles, busses, etc.

A "regular car" (pick your favorite make/model) is essentially a
"hole" in a sea of oversized vehicles. You learn to look at the
traffic signals on *cross* streets to infer what *yours* is likely
to be!
