As far as the side / hatch glass ... well I don't see any at the moment , but are cars required to have safety glass all around ?
They cut the frame of a unibody
I read more about the car and those pictures are old..
There is no DOT approved safety equipment in it.. (airbag, seat belts, ect)
The rear is solid, no suspension because its geared towards being an EV drag vehicle..

A car that small is already unsafe as it is on a
freeway doing 55 surrounded by jackass's hauling butt..

It still looks cool..
