nicknamenick,

You are confused. The smaller fourbangers (the drivers) are notorious for accidents. So think of the high incidence of mishap. Next, because the vehicles have high acceleration and the drivers like to plant the foot, the momentum is going to be higher.

It all comes back to the driver's skill and care. Argue the toss if you like to waste your time, but all here could improve their own chances by being in the moment while driving, actually concentrating on the road and recognising hazards and controlling the distractions and day dreaming (or ruminating/worrying). Hard to do but attention pays off.

I served on a number of honorary positions on school councils and drop off and pick up was always a source of problems, especially where teachers' cars and other vehicles were allowed within the perimeter of the school fence. What to do where available infrastructure cannot keep up with the outrageous population growth of federal government Ponzie immigration records?

The numbers do it all . Newtons measure the acceleration of mass . With more mass , the Kluger has more grunt for its larger Newtons and more AWD grip on the changing surfaces as it charges into battle.
