In an unexpected complex situation for which there is very little training data and the behavioral dynamics are not merely about physics, namely impending accident with other cars controlled by other entities that can also respond to this car, any kind of simplistic reasoning like "hit the SUV because it can survive better" has no scientific basis. It's not clear what is being optimized for. For example, how do you know that SUVs are not more likely to have babies who are more fragile, so hitting the SUV is not necessarily better in terms of reducing fatalities. Also, the other cars are responding to this car. This is not about shooting stationary targets.
