True Ovr, very true.
In fact, while the "unobservant soccer mom" chatting on her cell phone while driving her Escalade is indeed a favourite punching bag for many, I have become aware of several different profiles. And no, they don't all drive hulking, gas guzzling SUVs.
If I see a baseball cap poking up above the driver's head rest I watch that car
very carefully. Young guys (and gals) zooming around in their very first and very fast little cars doing wild lane changes certainly raise my tension level.
On the other hand, I know quite a few young drivers who are very responsible behind the wheel. They even put some of us baby boomers to shame!
Then there is the "busy deal maker", driving a fancy car and, yes again, on his cell phone putting together the next "big deal". Gotta move that merchandise!
There are others, no doubt, but the above should illustrate that singling out one car type and its "typical" driver over all others is silly.
In short, don't blame the car, blame the driver of the car. Send them back to driving school. Pull their license. If you don't approve of a class of vehicle, then argue your point on its proper merits.
