I saw a ducky once Buick brake lights are too low

Not my pictures, but saw this car today. The brake lights are definitely not where you'd expect them and annoyingly low

My parents had a 2018 kia Sportage, and one time I had to follow them 2hrs one way to the airport because we had to pick up family that was visiting. The turn signals are down near the bottom, like where the brake lights are for the photo OP posted. I stayed far enough back that I could see where they were going, but good golly it's crazy that those designing vehicles come up with these placements. thankfully my folks got a different vehicle that had the turn signals up where you'd actually expect them.

I'm now just thinking about all the giants trucks that probably couldn't even see the top ones with how close most people drive to me in my equinox with regular heigh lights. They would have to be sooo far back you could fit like 3 of these in between.
