Ugh. Leading to the "can't-beat-em-join-em" SUV debacle.

Yeah, but as I recall most SUVs I see around have those dark tinted windows, so even if you are stuck behind one SUV, and you're driving another SUV - and therefore at the same height more or less, you have no better view of the road ahead thanks to those dark windows...

...so the can't beat em join em soultion is not a workable one either.

And when everyone has SUVs - then what?
