SUVs & Speed Bumps

So today as I drive into the office I get stuck in the parking lot behind a small little Toyota Sequoia. And this beast of a SUV (well it's driver) slows to about 2MPH over every speed bump. These are speed bumps that the Toyota Celica was taking--without difficulty--at 15MPH. Why do these people with giant SUVs think that they must take the speed bumps like you are in a rickety old carriage?

I totally agree! This drives me totally crazy :) It also occurs when there is a bump ahead sign on a road. My Honda Civic can take these bumbs without any trouble; SUV owners seem to need to take them at unbeleivably slow speeds. Maybe they are afraid they will roll their SUVs ;)
