I'm pretty sure that even on my compact european truck the hood height is more than 40 inches even though it's tiny compared toi those massive American trucks like the one in the picture. Seems like increased danger to pedestrians is just a truck problem period and them getting even bigger doesn't really make that worse other than the limited visibility right infront of it which isn't so much an issue with mine.
