Why is it that they blame SUVs? Put the blame where it ought to be and that is that if you drive like a Jack@#s; whether in a car or an SUV, you are a hazard. [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif[/img]
It should be much harder to get a driver's licence than it currently is; do you have a pulse and fifty bucks.
I got an SUV because a)I like being up high, b)I got too many tickets in a sports car, and c)I don't want to have multiple vehichles for different things; SUVs cover kids, trips, lawn supplies, towing the boat.
If people were more cautious in general while driving, regardless of vehichle type, we wouldn't have as many accidents. Every day on the Dallas Tollway (our daily version of NASCAR); I see people doing their makeup, reading or working on their laptops while driving.
Sorry for the rant, but these BS studies are getting out of hand and are coming close to encrouching on my rights to own whatever I want!
