 @bc697b09 @32351832 If it's  just about the use of a vehicle, why are people driving cars  way, way bigger than necessary, especially in the US where your SUVs are about twice the size of those in Australia? 
 @0177da18 @32351832 

Because that is what is marketed to them. And because if the other cars on the road are bigger, its safer for the occupants to also have a bigger heavier car. Of course this is very bad for many reasons. 
 @bc697b09 @32351832 When you say "marketed to" are you saying consumer preference has nothing to do with what sells? Don't  companies do market research to find out what consumers want?

It looks like you are replying to someone else that doesn’t show up on my timeline. They blocked. Then commented.
