Idiot SUV owners have trouble selling

[Coronita]

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). 

 

I assure you at least 50% of the folks in CA are unfit to be driving any vehicle. When in doubt, drive when it rains here. Germany does an excellant job regulating stupid drivers by making it more difficult and expensive to get a license.

Good lord, what bunch of birkenstock wearing tree huggers.

I own a ford F150. I actually USE it for, you know, hauling stuff to the dump or home from Home Depot.

I can't really do any of that in a Prius or an Accord.

However, I recycle virtually everything possible, I compost yard waste and kitchen scraps, I drink filtered tap water. I make my own damn coffee at home and I have an organic garden in my back yard.

How many of you big car haters actually live your life you way you'd insist others do?

 

Ah yes, but can you do this that you would be able to do with a miata?

Apparently, neither are they fit to endlessly link statistically useless YouTube videos of car crashes to prove a point.

Spoken like a true Bush-voting, SUV-owning Neanderthal. Show it reams of statistical data and thousands of videos of SUV roll-overs and “insignificant statistical data” he’ll spout. Yet, let it watch a week’s worth of Bill O’Reilly and nary a sentence — nay, a word — will the brainwashed Neanderthal disagree with.

Continue on your clueless way kind sir. Don’t let the facts or reason get in the way of your manifest destiny.
