Smartcar Takes 70MPH Crash On The Chin
Unbelievable!
The German-engineered Smartcar, soon to hit U.S. lots, looks like a toy but takes hits like an old Volvo. Filmed here with its rollcage surviving a 70 MPH crash into a concrete wall, it presents two grand mysteries. First, the almost-magical durability present in such a tiny vehicle, and second, the fact that it can reach 70 MPH at all. The thing looks dangerous just moving at that speed. http://blog.wired.com/gadgets/2007/1...car-takes.html |

Dayum..... still don't think I'd want to be in it for a 70 mph collision with anything! I am impressed it held up as well as it did, though.

I want to see how that will stand up to getting plowed by other much larger vehicles. Remember that most accidents include other cars.
