Wow! Six whole SUV drivers voluntered. I wonder how many SUV's there are in the city where the report comes from. Don't get me wrong. I applaud those people who went out of their way and volunteered for something most people wouldn't even think about. Six out of ten or thirty thousand SUV's isn't exactly a whole lot. It doesn't "prove" that SUV owners are altruistic or civic minded. We also aren't told how many jeep drivers or 4-wheel drive Subaru drivers (I'm sure that Paul Hogan was there.) also volunteered. Living in Dallas, the Holy Land of the SUV, I know that there are many caring, civic minded people who drive SUV's (like my parents). I also know that there are maany total jerks. Drivers lost in their own world who think that traffic laws don't apply to them and that they are entitled to 4 spaces when they park.
