One solution would be requiring special license for larger vehicles.
A lot of people claim they need a car to get around. A normal license should allow you to drive just that - a sub 1 tonne vehicle.
Now, if you fancy a large utility vehicle with lots of blind zones and taking up extra space - that’s no problem, just get extra training to learn how to drive it safely and get reevaluated yearly to show that you are not a danger on the road. A lower threshold to losing or suspending your license would help too.
This would dissuade a lot of people from upgrading to a large vehicles.
So a smart needs a special license, my mx5 too. My corsa i had beforehand also. So the European moped class am is what you want. Meaning the special license you want already exists and is called b, the typical car driving license.
Then stop giving those away and reserve them to those who really needs it. In my country, 80% of the people lives in urban area yet 80% of the people have a cars.
Don’t get too hung up on details. It doesn’t need to be a weight class. Class b doesn’t require regular re-examining, which i think would be the key in deterring people who don’t need it and ensure they have the skills to operate the vehicle safely.

Ok, exactly how do you convince our oil company bribed politicians to curb rampant American consumption?
Because without that, you just killed a few trillion electrons in useless navel gazing.
Ok, now you’re just moving goal posts. I answered to how to get people from driving exceedingly large vehicles.
Corruption is a different problem altogether and it depends on the country.
