Sure you might need a &amp;quot;good enough&amp;quot; ground clearance, motor and brakes in mountain areas, but you can get that without an SUV, many (most?) new non-sport cars fall into this category.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>SUVs more dangerous to cyclists than other cars, study suggests</title><url>https://road.cc/content/news/suvs-more-dangerous-cyclists-than-other-cars-300605</url></story>

A year ago I saw a middle-aged couple both go up onto the hood of a Prius that was rounding a right turn without looking. I think they were both fine. If it was an SUV they&amp;#x27;d have been knocked forward so hard they&amp;#x27;d have been seriously injured or killed.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>SUVs more dangerous to cyclists than other cars, study suggests</title><url>https://road.cc/content/news/suvs-more-dangerous-cyclists-than-other-cars-300605</url></story>
