The sad thing is the fact that this how a lot of people (especially woman) really think!

I feel real envious of SUV drivers!









They get to see a better view of my grey Union Jack roof than I can when I'm stood next to it!

What is really sad about this "article" is that the insurance institute in the USA has just published research that the death rate in vehicle accidents was HIGHER in SUVs than in normal sedans such as Accords and Camrays. Go figure.

Apparently they have a real tendency to roll over in an accident. That and the drivers tend to drive to fast for the conditons, tailgate, and attempt to ignore the rules of physics.

That is hilarious. I read it once, and then read it to my husband, and could hardly stop laughing! :-)

"Part-time mom"? surely that's an oxymoron?

I'll bet also that those deaths in SUV's were also caused by the occupants having a false sense of security and not putting on their seatbelts too.
