I'm sure they have killed a fair few by now, hopefully most of their accidents involve themselves and a wall....
They improve their cars performance, but how many improve the brakes?
:evil:
hobbit:
32% say no, but 25% have one and love em, also 25% say People can drive what they like
So 50% are for them in one way or another :wink:
Think on it, how big a percentage of the car population is 4x4 anyway, bout the same as the amount of byways driveable compared to the footpaths/bridleways and tro's?

As their own reseasrch states it's all based on AMERICAN statistics- quite how that applies to the UK I don't know?

Please read it. Nothing about 'gas guzzling polluters' etc in there. Why can't journalists just report the original BMJ article factually without having to embellish news with thier own OPINIONS and AGENDAS. The original BMJ article is just common sense- older people wondering in front of heavy cars will get hurt- can't argue with that- we all knew it anyway and don't need two f*****g professors to tell us!
It just REALLY makes me mad when the journalists get hold of something like this they then have to add whatever they feel like to increase the anti 4x4 feelings that some misguided folk already have.
I FEEL AN ANGRY E-MAIL TO THE BEEB AND ITV COMING COMING ON ABOUT MIS-REPORTING THE FACTS!!
