Cars like the ForTwo and the Yaris shouldn't even be on the road. I don't know who they paid off to get that cheap **** approved in this country. There

Cars like the ForTwo and the Yaris shouldn't even be on the road. I don't know who they paid off to get that cheap **** approved in this country. There are a lot of people out there buying these for their combination of "cheap and eco-friendly" and not realizing how much they're putting their lives at risk.
Watch the slow-mo side view of the Yaris driver especially (last video). That guy is going to be screwed, bigtime. What I really love seeing in these videos is the airbag deployments under slow motion. I'm a computer/electronics geek so I should know how easy it is in theory, but it still amazes me that we can build reliable systems that deploy so amazingly fast at the onset of crash-level g forces. |
