A van isnt safer than an suv, it actually can have a higher tendency to roll than an suv with the more people you have in it, I read an article in our newspaper a few weeks ago about this actually. Also, I have an explorer, an suv, but if i couldve afforded a Ford F-150, a truck, i wouldve gotten that. Trucks are usually more expensive than suvs, so if you need to tow stuff and cant afford a truck, an suv is your next best option.
also, bad drivers are bad drivers, plain and simple. it doesnt matter if they drive a truck, an suv, or one of those little hondas. Ive seen bad drivers in all and maybe suvs are the "in trend" right now, but ill bet you cash that before any of the suv drivers owned one, they were bad drivers in their previous cars.
