12. Inexperienced drivers can screw up in a car easily enough- but a hulking SUV is entirely different

in terms of control.

Don't even get me started on bonehead offroad driving. People in this neck of the woods drive out on the beach in their fancy way too heavy rigs, without even bagging their tires down- then wonder why they stuck in the soft stuff.

They try to haul ass through a patch of clay like mud (the driver becoming a passenger) ending up against a tree or in the ditch. Or they drive out on a wet boggy, field (sometimes as a "shortcut"). Hey, it looked "green and all."

LOL- you know 'em and we've seen 'em. Some of us have pulled 'em out.

Then again- in Oregon, there's also snow and ice driving....
