Slamming the brakes means different things for a sports car vs a SUV.
In my Subaru STI I can stop faster than some Escalade with only 2/3rds the brake pedal pressure. I'm not even close to maximum braking force. It's even more true in a lighter car like a Porsche 911.
Just as if they were driving a large commercial truck it is the SUV driver's responsibility to not be too close to me.
