When I said lighter cars, what I meant was, that ALL cars would have to be lighter now. You can be out in a Miller Light beer can, trying to compete with 18 wheelers. They need an entire new road system, keeping such trucks away from cars in the first place, then some way of perhaps slowly downsizing the weight of cars over years so the current heavy ones get phased out as they get older and not worth keeping up anymore.
