I mean the Car has like a 1 star Safety rating. If you get hit by another car, your toast.
Like these cars: http://www.motorhomesdirect.co.uk/images鈥?/a>|||You know, if a kid lost his basketball and it rolled out in front of the smart car the thing would probably tip over. Can you imagine driving that little teacup on a windy day?
In all seriousness, if a normal size car hit it, it would be toast and you would be toast.|||I was in Europe and the UK recently. The cars were referred to as the decapitators by many, because they routinely decapitate the occupants when they run into the back of a truck or larger vehicle. Most often in minor accidents. (imagine what they would do in a major accident!) It apparently has happened frequently.
There is no reason for such an unsafe alternative in the name of environmental efficiency or fuel efficiency. You would be safer on a bicycle with a helmet.
Economy has never had such a bad choice.|||I guess you will be toast if your in a Smart Car and an Expedition, Escalade or Hummer hits you head on, doing 50mph. I guess a Smart car is too short to T-bone also (its about as long as other vehicles are wide) - wonder what you would call that???:-)
Either way, physics is physics, a small vehicle being hit by a big one is ugly - and the passengers (and driver) of the smaller vehicle will be more likely to be injured than passengers of a larger vehicle.|||The Smart Car in a Car Accident with another Car would become a mart Car or a Smar Car (dependent on whether it was a FRONT or a REAR end 'Shunt' or the Smart Car would become a mar Car if it was involved in a FRONT %26amp; REAR end 'Shunt' at the SAME time with other Cars / Vehicles etc. !
What NO Sense of Humour ? Doh !|||No such thing as a smart car if the driver's not smart right?
At the end of the top gear clip Jeremy points out that it's the sudden impact of such a small frame that will tear the organs up.|||On Youtube there are many videos that are on this very subject. My favorite video is where a Smart Car is smashed into a Mercedes S-Class, the Smart Car literally rolls away like a soccer ball.|||where did you hear 1 star safety rating.? the smart car is extremely safe
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=CJHpUO-S0i鈥?/a>|||That car wouldn't be so smart after the accident now would it? I'm sure your car would have to wear a helmet after that one.|||it's got a pretty smart safety design.|||Stop driving those cars|||I would not want to find out.|||I think you'd be pretty much dead, eh?
