SUV: The Vehicle for Fears

“Motorphobic" is the term given to a person who fears cars. This phobia of cars is usually caused by a traumatic car accident experience; but sometimes, motorphobia is caused by other fears, such as claustrophobia, antlophobia and monophobia.



Claustrophobia is the fear of being in crowded places. People who have this prefer spacious environments. Antlophobia is the misplaced fear of floods. People who have this prefer not to go out during the wet season. And, monophobia is fear of being unaccompanied. People who have this make sure that they can always invite people.



To address the motorphobia of claustrophobics, antlophobics and monophobics, the right kind of vehicle should be given to them. Sport Utility Vehicles is the answer to those who fear crowded places, floods and being alone.



A Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) looks like the offspring of a van and a truck. It is a spacious four-wheeled vehicle with two or three seat rows. And, its body is elegantly box-like.



The SUV is perfect for claustrophobics because its interior has a lot of place. Four average-sized people can sit comfortably in each row, unlike in car rows, which only allow three. The SUV is perfect for antlophobics because the diameter of its tires is only inches bigger than the diameter of car tires. It is a great vehicle for rainy seasons. An antlophobic would not have to worry about flood water entering the SUV. Last, the SUV is perfect for monophobics for there is plenty of space for people to ride on.



Aside from its size, another good characteristic of an SUV is its safety. The box-like bodies of SUV’s are made of stronger metal than the metal used in cars. When it comes to car accidents, SUV drivers will more likely survive than car drivers.
