Hmmm....stability at high speeds. I think you just let all the air out of
the "SUVs are safer" theory. This is why we see so many of them in
ditches,
waiting for tow trucks. That's where the higher seating level is handy -
you
can see over the top of the ditch so you know when the tow truck's
arrived.
