Or just come out and say what they really want...
Everyone to drive an electric bus controlled by computer and pay an extra 5% in annual premiums

That C-class is safe an all until they do an offset crash test with a mack truck.

The mack truck is safe until they do an offset crash test with a train.

When will the madness stop?

There are a hell of a lot more vehicles C-class size and larger on the road than there are Mack truck size and larger.

The Smart looks like it was destroyed and really pushed in, but I didnt see any good pictures or video of what the inside of the passenger compartment looked like. How bad was the passenger compartment after the crash? It also doesnt give a good view of how far the mercedes was pushed in either. And compared to the toyota in the next video it did pretty damn good

ya if possible I think Ill just avoid the head on crashes all together, off set or otherwise.
