SUVs are possibly safer if you collide with a smaller vehicle. But they are not safer in general. And they are especially not safer for pedestrians as the OP's URL says. Here's another earlier URL on that topic: https://www.treehugger.com/nhtsa-keeps-blaming-victims-instead-regulating-suvs-and-pickups-4851894 https://www.treehugger.com/nhtsa-keeps-blaming-victims-inste... SUVs roll over and, when they do, their occupants brains are often smashed. Not good for your next Google interview. SUVs are less maneuverable and can be unstable if one attempts to change course, especially at higher speed such as freeway driving. This is even more serious in rain and ridiculously obvious in ice/snow. Sedans are safer b/c - they are designed to be safer (sedan safety standards are more demanding than those of SUVs), - they are more maneuverable and brake better and - they protect you from front/rear/side impacts and from rollovers. Sure, the sedan is destroyed, but it did it's job, which is to protect you. You can always get a new car but you can't get a new brain if yours is pancaked.
