Bigger is safer
I thought this was interesting marketing device. If tiger say it then it has to be true. :p
I looked for the safety rating on the Buick and it's 5 stars which I thought was the best but it did not make the list. I wonder if it's prone to rollover? |
I think the term should change to,
Bigger is safer in a head on crash, as long as they are equally as safe in a single wall-crash. I'd like to be in the heavier car in a head on crash, but that's just me. Semi drivers have an easy time in those head on collisions with smaller cars. |
I've been very impressed with the video of a Smartcar hitting a barrier at 70MPH... But still wonder how it would fare against my F150 Supercrew. Don't get me wrong, I'd drive a Smart car.

Here's a very interesting paper on the subject.
