I would like to add details on the externalized costs of SUVs.

The damage to roads scales O(n^3) by vehicle mass.

The death rates have already been spoken for.

The space taken by SUVs on roads and parking is subsidized by people who drive smaller cars, cyclists, and pedestrians.

Road-goers should not be subsidizing SUV owners.
