Hmm. So let me get this straight. You have a surburban driven by probably a carjacker speeding away at the top speed, beyond it’s capabilities, crashing, and flipping..And this is somehow the fault of the vehicle???
How’s this one. Happened here in TorreyHighland…Riceboy tries to “drift” Honda civic doing 90+ miles, and civic gets cut into two pieces.
I suppose from this, we can conclude civics are unsafe.
The main difference between SUVs and cars is that you have to do dumb things in a car to crash. SUVs are so unwieldy that a “normal” driver can lose control for no apparent reason (see the pedestrian-killer article above) or can crash through barricades that would stop a normal-sized car (see the parking garage incident above).
The government can’t regulate away stupidity in people. However, the government can regulate away (or at least heavily penalize with taxes) stupid vehicles (e.g., SUVs).
