“The movement have now deflated tyres on around 9,000 SUVs in cities across the world since March, striking continuously, and look set to surpass their goal of 10,000 SUVs deflated by Christmas,” the statement added.

The group has said its aim is “to make it impossible to own an SUV in the world’s urban areas”, condemning the vehicles as “unnecessary ‘luxury emissions’, flaunted by the wealthy, that are a climate disaster, cause air pollution and make our roads more dangerous”.

    Eh, maybe if you're just zipping around town it's fine. However if you live in a poor town or a poor part of town my experience has been that the city does not give enough of a fuck to do a good job plowing. Plus ice and slush are still a concern even on plowed roads sometimes. And some folks don't have a job they can afford to miss or be late for when the weather turns shitty.

    I do agree on the 4wd cars not needing to be big point
