Will regulators end up requiring a minimum head to windshield header distance?
While I admit I drive a bit too close to the steering wheel, modern cars feel so cramped inside.
I'm having a hard time feeling roomy in most non-SUV cars.
Even if this is aerodynamically helpful most people wouldn't tradeoff comfort for aero.
I also guess this windshield header closeness might be dangerous in a crash.
Would regulators step up and mandate a minimum head to windshield header distance?
Of course it will depend on how far back you move the seat so maybe it will be related to the steering wheel position?
If a windshield needs to be very inclined for aero that's ok but why can't automakers move the windshield forward?
I guess the reason is not aerodynamically or structurally related. I guess its based on styling as cars with short hoods tend to look feeble as compared to long hoods.
