that's why i drive dodge Nitro, also because of my own safety. If i would crash with my Daveoo Matiz in honda like that, we would probably be both dead.. With my nitro case at least is more chance for me to live in case of heavy crash.

Uhhh yeah you ever seen the way SUVs roll in crash tests? A car with a high centre of gravity handles much more poorly than cars with lower centres of gravity, its simple physics. Additionally, heavier cars are generally much worse at braking, hence reduced stopping distance, hence more likelihood you're gonna end up going up someones arse. And there's a difference between a big car & an SUV, u could easily cart around 3 kids & all their crap in a medium sized sedan, why is an SUV so essential?

Ok, then all cars who is larger than your Audi is dangerus, that means all big mercedes, audi, bmw, volvo etc. and all minivans is to be forbidden.
Do you have any proof in your statement that bigger car are more likely to get in accidents?
In a family with three kids a big car is nessecery, you got hockey practice, horsebackriding, motocrossriding, football, vaications and so on, wee need a big car, i am concidering buying a tahoe hybrid, it does 27mpg and has all the room we need.

Additionally, larger cars are much more likely to end up in an accident in the first place. There's just no reason to justify owning one 99% of the time

Any small car that gets t-boned by a big car is going to get wasted it doesn't matter how many airbags it has or what n-cap safety rating it achieves. That was my point exactly - big car vs. little car always ends badly for the driver of the small car. My Audi A3 has a 5 star safety rating but I know that if I get hit by an SUV I'm fucked. Trying to justify owning a large car for safety reasons is selfish and irrational, if everyone drove smaller cars we wouldn't have this problem...

The Honda is one of the worst cars ever made, no matter what would have t-boned it, the outcome would have been the same.
The real danger is the weight ratio, when a heavy car crash into a light car the big one wins.
All my cars has at least a curbweight of 4000lbs.
Btw, my wife was offended being called useless.

Fuck man, it should be illegal to buy an SUV unless you can prove that you genuinely NEED one (for work purposes or something) and needing an SUV to pick up your fatarse kids from school shouldn't be an excuse. Useless house wives driving dangerous cars is not a good combination
