I cked the safety vid, thanks for that.
They all showed the same crash. It was as deadly as could B (head on w/an offset toward each driver). I had the same beef I have w/the cop's body cam. U C something for a very short time, but nothing B4 or after that frames the short piece in it's wider context. Not a lie, just no context.
Anyway the older car's dummy showed headliner contact (paint up there) so did the new car. Ofcourse the death spear did it's thing. I wont go dwn each part. The glass in the new car (crumple zone) didn't even pop, the older car - it went flyin, etc.
I don't know what to say. I know the new car is safer, lotta technology, laws, science's gone in in 50, 60 yrs. (s*^t, ever C same done w/a SMART car? That lill fella, even smashed inta Jersey barriers at 80 protected the passenger). I guess I was lookin at the mass, only partial structure (frame) & thinkin the physics not the mechanics (unibody v body on chassy).
Don't forget. Performance improvement usually assists on MPGs too. If this car gets over 18 MPGs B happy. We can up it to it's max if wishing to do so. Its a thousand lill things that doit, just like anything else...
