The side impact test seem particularly brutal, its the side impact curtains / airbags that are providing *some degree*
of protection. Being strapped in the seat belt seems like it would add to the trauma, who knows, I thought a old pick up or a old car would demolish a newer vehicle but as it turns out its the opposite.
