    smart cars dont have many crumple zones and are so light that the impact from other cars is magnified onto the smart car

    Surely nobody drives a smart car fast enough to worry about crumple zones.

    ... They arent motorway cars.

    yeah, right "i buy a car cause it got 4 out of 5 in the NCAP tests"

    looks good + cheap + works good - thats what people decide on.

    i dont pick any other car over others because of safety features simply cos i trust that they look alot safer where as with smart cars your eating steering wheel and sucking on windshield if ya crash

    i dont know how you come to that conclusion check out smart website and safety aspect of car, they're as safe as most other cars.

    I'd feel safer driving my 24yr old mk1 golf than most new cars today
