Special Utility Vehicles
You’re most likely very familiar with the monstrous-sized SUV’s favored by soccer moms for hauling kids and equipment to and from games. Many of us have had to dodge one of these on the roadways because the driver couldn’t see us in our under-sized vehicles. These have lost some popularity in the past few years due to rising fuels costs and environmental concerns. But many Special Utility Vehicles or SUV’s are still in use around the world.
However, if your trip is about driving flat and freeway long distances, even if you can affort renting a SUV, please go for a smaller or more economical and ecological-friendly vehicule.
Special Utility Vehicles were manufactured for the purpose of having the capacity to traverse through or over even the most rugged of terrains. Whereas most vehicles would become stuck in a hole full of muddy water in the roadway for example, the raised carriage of a SUV allows this vehicle to pass over this water hazard without becoming stuck.
Special Utility Vehicles are a constant presence of Safari’s because travel on foot in these regions is cumbersome in some places, and just not possible in others. Special utility vehicles also keep tourists safe from the dangerous animals that most safari trips are embarked upon to see such as lions, tigers, hyenas, crocodiles, white and black rhinos, and snakes with highly-toxic venoms, and so on. No human could outrun a charging elephant either so these special utility vehicles can get people away from the danger quickly.
Police and fire agencies around the world also use special utility vehicles in the performing of the different duties of their jobs. Policing agencies are able to move off-road in pursuit of dangerous criminals who would get away if these brave soldiers in the fight against crime didn’t have special utility vehicles at their disposal. Special utility vehicles also carry firemen and equipment into hard to access areas that are experiencing wildfires so that these fires can be put out before homes and lives are lost.
One might even choose to rent a SUV on a mountain trip for example to make it easier to get up and down steep mountainous elevations, and trails where no actual roadway exists with ease.
