    The people who drive these things here in the UK are mental. I got smashed by one once overtaking me on a slip road because I wasn’t going fast enough for him. I followed him all the way to his golf club and confronted him about it. His tank was barely scratched while my driver side door was totally fucked.

      Yeah even the SUV would be uncomfortably wide on some UK roads, end yet they’re getting really common. They’re almost all driven by people who don’t need a large vehicle.

      I’ve seen a small woman driving a Hummer in Ware (Hertfordshire UK) of all places, can just about see out of the windows (that’s another thing that pisses me off, don’t people know you can raise the seat to let you see out of the windows?), can’t park in normal bays as it’s too big (and she can’t see) and it has a plate something like V8 HMR. FFS.
