So, we're neighbors.....sort of !

As far as S(uck)UV's are concerned, it seems like far too many
folks are buying them, regardless of gas prices zooming upward,
oblivious to their obvious wastefulness, and that many of these
folks are the same sort that used to drive those giant pontiacs
and coupe devilles - they were SOOO much bigger than anything
else that even the worst, and even drunkest driver could smash
anything or anyone they hit to death, and still walk (or
totter...) away in one piece.
In these parts, if it is big, and not staying in it's designated
lane space, severely varying it's speed, stopping in an active
lane of travel suddenly enough to cause panic stops for others,
or causing some other type of danger, discomfort or severe
inconvenience for other - it is most likely an SUV, whose driver
will not ever even notice us 'lower' folks in the ditch because
we AVOIDED hitting them.

I'm not saying any of this in an attempt to offend, and truly,
the only person to be offended would fit my description, and
if so, they aren't likely to have a taste for Saabs !

Does it look like I have a strong opinion here ?
(Don't even ask me what I think about making reaction-speed
testing mandatory !!!)

Best Wishes,

mark
