An anti-SUV poster I drew before the lockdown. ⁠ It seems a lot of people buy SUV’s under the impression these giant city-tractors will protect their children on the school-run, but that comes at the cost of pedestrian safety. You’re twice as likely to die being hit by an SUV than you are by any other car.⁠ Their height also creates a blind spot around the car which has caused countless horrific accidents involving small children.⁠ ⁠ The safety for the occupants of SUVs is also an illusion. They’re twice as likely to roll in crashes and you’re 11% more likely to die in a crash in a SUV than a normal car. ⁠ ⁠ In Europe, sales of SUVs continue to increase; from 7% of the market in 2009 to 36% in 2019. They are forecast to reach nearly 40% by 2021.⁠ ⁠
