SUVs Killing People Again

Here we go again...Those dang SUVs are out there driving themselves around killing people again:
http://www.cnn.com/2004/US/South/02/....ap/index.html

Never mind that there was a human driving the vehicle and that human was drunk. Nope, it was the SUVs fault...or so the wording of the story makes it seem. I bet if a person was dragged to death by a Volkswagen, you wouldn't see "Man hit, dragged 8 miles by VW Bug"

Idiot media at work again.

That is because there would be more damage to the VW than the guy that it hit.
