Wow, some of those cars=FAIL!

Smart car FTL. When I pointed out to a friend that I didn't feel safe in such a small car, his response was "But what if everyone was driving them, then you'd just sort of, bounce off each other."

To which I say "Ya, but there will still be transport trucks. Ever seen 10-pin bowling? That's roughtly how I picture runaway semi vs. pack of Smart Cars."

And what the hell is with the randomly exploding sushi and weinermobile thing?

I dont know, but I thought it was pretty funny. What wasn't funny was the smart cars vs. the S series Benz...

The expensive cars are built so much better with safety in mind, that it really pays to spend the extra on gas just for the peace of mind.

It would appear that a large number of people have gained employment and a huge amount of money and resources have been spent in proving the obvious. Did the taxpayer approve/

The Benz and the smart car was hilarious. The smart car bounced up into the air after impact and spun around too.

It's a Chinese truck. Look up Chinese crash tests on youtube, they average 1/5 stars.
