Actually, it would be like hitting a wall at 75 mph. lol
I was up on this to about page 4 ish.
I am not one to care much for safety, I'm much more concerned about getting shot from an individual in a car than the car itself, be it me in one, or one at me. Although, my friends always used to laugh at those Smart car crash tests.
They'd always quote the guy "As you can see, the Smart car is in perfect condition other than the windows after the accident." Or something like that. They laughed because the occupants would be DOA, and the car would be structurally fine.
I don't like all the mandatory things. Such as break points on cars, the crumble spots, and all that added weight. I would prefer them to be optional. Less to go wrong, in my opinion.
But in the end, I think we are better off with them than without, regardless of mine, or anyone elses opinion.
