I agree. The news reporters make it sound like when you load up a van with people it could flip over while sitting in the parking lot. For the rest of us common sense and some limited knowledge of physics, it's not so surprising.

Of course, the report failed to the mention the precious little driver training and driver education majority of U.S.-licensed drivers receive. And with that license they are able to purchase and operate a multitude of vehicles for which they are very ill-prepared.

Chris. Fire-proof panties on.
