      Вы верно подметили! Раньше игрушки детские делали из железа и из дерева , эти работы были сделаны в ручную . И стоит подметить , что после работы руки мастера были изуродованные, из- за краски лака железа и силы вношеные в рукоделие. Но всё же из-за усилий этих мастеров мы и на данный момент имеем возможность рестоврировать и увидеть какие они были красивыми.
      Ну а сейчас игрушки заделаны из пластика и т.д. , эти игрушки сделаны станками , у которых часто бывает брак. Ну и экология страдает из-за этого ужаса.

If the car doesn't take the force and remains sturdy like they used to, then it's you who gets thrashed about at 60 miles an hour and will most likely die. Crumble zones in cars are SO SO important, even if it means they might get dented in less serious collisions.
