About IIHS:
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) is an independent, nonprofit scientific and educational organization dedicated to reducing deaths, injuries and property damage from motor vehicle crashes through research and evaluation and through education of consumers, policymakers and safety professionals.
IIHS was founded by auto insurance associations back in 1959-incidentally, the same year Volvo introduced the three-point safety belt. Since then, the IIHS has continued its work to reduce the frequency of collisions and to minimize the rate and severity of injuries (and monetary damage) in the crashes that cannot be prevented.

This helps me understand how my father died in a crash in 2009. His airbag deployed but his skull was still crushed in from the impact. RIP Dad.
Oof
Sorry to hear that, that’s horrible. It might help to see that these days, many others avoid this fate with the latest safety features
Thats unfortunate. Must of been a very bad accident.

wow, thanks for including them👍👌
Appreciate the list for sure, but why does it say '12 - '21? The last year in the list you have is '19
@@midjurion74 some of these cars are still being produced with no safety updates
@@EngiNetion is there a way to know which ones? We have a 2018 Prius c and the 2013 model is in the video
0:06- 3:22 pls what's name of the music?
Kind of glad we have the IIHS. Big car companies tried too fool the IIHS by only putting protection on the driver side getting false safety ratings. the passenger side was not as safe. I hope the Big companies got fine for that one.
The test should be based on real World crashes. If someone crosses the yellow line they are going to hit the left side and there is often no front seat passenger. Focusing on the most likely impact area makes sense
@@Noah_E this is real world. Most crashes are not dead square impacts most are exactly like this. Most drivers will attempt to turn left or right to avoid impact causing this exact scenario.
IIHS is not a government agency, hence they are unable to issue fines.
Do you feel similarly about big pharma?
@@FlyingAceAV8B big pharma is evil
It's really interesting. 2012 is when they introduced this test of course, and you can see the development cycles of the cars. When the next gen was designed with this test in mind
Interesting to know.. some cars got very popular in sales, but considered this kind of impact did not end well for many. Great example is 2012 Lexus ES. Its doors got ripped like tin can :/ also airbag failures in general gets bad in many cars.
@@simonforis5465 same thing with my Honda Fit, very safe car..... Bad small overlap
@@Dia1Up lmao Honda Fit . It will get pancaked so hard
@@simonforis5465 6
@@Dia1Up then its not safe.
I just looked it up, the reason cars did so poorly in 2012 is because 2012 was the first year the IIHS introduced small overlap crash tests. Before that they mostly did moderate over lap crash test. A small overlap crash test puts more pressure on a small area, so all these cars would do much better in a moderate overlap crash test.
Why are you looking for excuses? Your reasoning only means that manufactures only engineered them to perform well on the tests and not to actually protect the customer at all "costs", which is incredibly shameful. The manufacturers whose cars performed well even at the introduction of the test are the only ones you can trust.
@@gentle285 it's not an excuse, it's the companies were not yet ready for the new test. The were probably notified of the test a year before, but it takes a lot to design a frame to withstand a small over lap test. A lot of these vehicles that did poorly were 4 years old, so they just didn't have a new frame to test it. Like the cr-v for example the frame was released in 2007, and it was pretty much the same in 2012. Now i still think having a small over lap test is a good thing, because it forces companies to make their cars safer, but to make a car safer that takes time and money.
@@gentle285 If people use your logic, the cost of cars would sky rocket to prepare for ALL contingencies. There is always a trade off during engineering and design of vehicles with a given budget and cost.
In 2012, the best performing car in the small overlap front tests was the 2012 Volvo S60
I don't know how real are the notes. I mean, there's couple cars tests where the A pilar are almost broken, the dummies head almost goes outside the window and the side airbag opens after, and that car get M (moderate) and other cars where you can see that the pilar A stays intact and the safe cage also intact, the dummies hit the central opened airbag correctly, and get P (poor) note. There's a "dieselgate" here on those tests also?
Look at Chevrolet Sonic, as examples. Or Ww CC...
Amazing how many of the steering wheel airbags just bounced around uselessly, offering no protection for the driver. And shocking to see how many side curtain airbags didn't deploy, failing to contain the driver's head movements.
And after they deployed, they kept the head idly still
they’re not supposed to stay inflated. if the bag didn’t deflate, your head would bounce back off it.
Yes. You also caught the most important aspect..if you are a driver who is aware you will turn left of right to avoid impact which causes this exact scenario. Thank you for creating this very important test..not many crashes are dead square impacts most are exactly like this test replicates.
Yea my mo. Got into a crash she's fine but her risk are broken forever it was In The year 2000 she hit the railing in the highway then hit a car then that car got hit and she went into a ditch
Imagine how badly an even older design would fare!! Gosh I hate old Crocks!!
At 6:17, he doesn't care about that wall he just hit, he just wants to turn up the tunes.
LOL
I was literally watching that crash as I read your comment 😂
This might be the hardest category in all crash test scenarios. High speed, small impact area.
i got into a wreck with the same impact point. i badly broke my arm & leg and shattered my jaw. i had a third degree PCL tear that fractured my tibial spine (a little bone that’s usually protected by the ligaments/tendons/muscles). i just fractured my fibular head because i walk wrong (injured leg is shorter than the not hurt leg). i think this test is done at 40mph and i wrecked going 55. hopefully these tests lead to more safety measures when it comes to front partial crashed
@@misseselise3864 how are you doing now? That must’ve been a scary wreck to be in
40 mph is not high speed. just think how bad these cars would be at 70 mph. These new cars are death traps.
@@craigmarr7986 Older cars have even weaker passenger cells and would fair far far worse. It's those that are deathtraps.
@@__-fm5qv Look at some videos of car accidents from the 1950s, and 1960s, and it proves my point. The new cars are nothing but death traps, because they are nothing but plastic, and little pieces of thin metal. Nothing at all that will protect you in a bad accident.
90% of the vehicles tested had (A) pillar deformation and the dash intruded towards the drivers body. It was also clear starting in 2012 that the Mercedes and BMW had the strongest subframe probably from higher strength steel to protect the passenger compartment. Volkswagen seem to do well here too. The latter years for the Lincoln and even more dramatic failure in the Cadillac, the whole frame of the driver’s side just started to crumple front all the way to the back. I was surprised at how poorly the reliable Asian cars perform. The frames were just not as rigid as the BMW’s, Merced’s or Volkswagen’s passenger bubble, that was clear. The large trucks too, major cabin deformation. If the car doesn’t contain the high strength steel passenger compartment it’s basically a tin can on wheels.
2004+ Mazda RX8 had high tensile steel. So did MX5. Other Mazda share design with Ford until 2014 Mazda6 and later new models which all had it upgraded. CX9 and Mazda5 were last Ford based models
@Omega F30 series etc were designed before 2012. So they won't do well on crash test released 2012. Not until G80 series released much later.
I was shocked to see General Motors cars in this video
German cars are also designed with autobahn use in mind.
VW? LOL that Audi got mashed
That must be quite a job cleaning up after each of these tests. Every one starts with a completely pristine room with no debris or skid marks, crash obstacle devoid of any marks, etc.
I agree. Employing people is always welcomed.
Ik
They should put a layer of plastic on the floor for each test
So they won't have to do so much cleaning
We do our part of getting a safe car and they to they part by cleaning up after EVERY CRASH TEST that do.
16:54 I don't know how that Chevy Sonic didn't get a Poor rating, the side curtain airbag deployed LATE. I think that's kind of worse than not having them at all...
I also think the Toyota Yaris at 13:20 shouldn’t have gotten a Marginal. The dummy completely missed the airbag and instead almost went out the window. If the driver didn’t have a seatbelt on they would have likely been launched out of the car.
It's damn true
Oh wow yea that curtain airbag was useless!
@@carvidz7504 Worse than useless. Airbags actually have the ability to cause injury or even death. The reason why they are so desired though is that the possibility of them saving your life is much higher than the possibility of them taking it, but the chance is still there. So if it deploys late, that means it didn't serve any function in saving you from injury or death, but that risk of injury FROM the airbag is still there. So you're getting all of the risk with none of the benefit if it deploys late like that...
@Omega uh, airbags deploy at like 200mph. They can cause very serious bodily injury. That's why they say that an airbag is actually bad for you if you're not wearing your seatbelt, because then you'll be too close to the airbag as it deploys...
1:03:29 a screwdriver coming from the engine??
I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed. Lol
Waitttt WHAAAA
The music that's playing while the screwdriver slowly flies out is funny.
At least it flew forward. More than likely, it was left by someone at IIHS when they installed the various equipment and is not a result of something else.
Gotta keep in handy when you work truck on field at all times need the hand tools you never know😂
17:03 It’s bad when the airbag deploys so late it traps the occupants head outside the car…
lmao wtf was that
you can see that the curtain airbags deploy after the steering wheel one does. with this type of collision, you’d want them to deploy at the same time or the curtain airbags deploy first
Yep
Garbage Manufacturing at its best
It's so sad how not a lot of people know about this organization and how they can save so many lives.
By scaring people with situations even a tak would fail? This crash is unrealistic for any car to do well in... its more like a glancing blow and not real structure. And you can add enough structure becasue that would hurt fuel economy... then you have the gov on your but.
@@FriscoBoatersGarage No dude there are so many new cars out there that crash test better in the tests like in the recent years so you can see that they had changed a lot about new car safety performance which previous model cars just lacked. But did you even notice that those cars are from usually the early 2010s and not really from the late 2010s or 2020+. Also they crash test a LOT of cars so only about maybe 20% do poorly. Would you really compromise safety over fuel economy? The automakers nowadays really care about getting an IIHS Top Safety Award to advertise and there are new materials being made to help with fuel economy. Hope you realize why they do the tests.
Agree;this organization informs n saves ppl
@@FriscoBoatersGarageuh hello? Ever heard of a tree? Or a guard rail?
@@FriscoBoatersGarage you obviously havent seen crash tests of, for example, the Tesla Model S and other cars. There is a HUGE difference in how cars perform in crashes. The Tesla Model S is one of the safest Cars out there nowadays.

@@jimbopsvidz because jeeps have factory roll cages, and rolling means the energy of the impact goes into flipping the car instead of crushing the driver
To be honest, even though this test was introduced in 2012, most of the vehicles in this video were designed WAY before then. We didn't start seeing vehicles pass this test until there were vehicle models had a full model year change (not just refresh). This test is actually very difficult to get right and took some re-engineering of vehicles.
Like 2009 Nissan maxima passed
1:03:13 woah, someone forgot their screwdriver..
look below the front right of the hood
I remember when side curtains and seat airbags were a “luxury” thing.
Now almost all cars that want a good or acceptable crash rating need to have them!!
Well, both still "luxury" items in Latin America (talking mainly about Brazil), specially for Fiat.

🚹😵
the problem is they keep putting this big concrete block in the way
how careless of them...
17:27 The side airbag tried to make him stuck
Yep totally
LMO!
The Beetle and Jetta had the least cabin intrusion.
A small airbag in the area of the a/c vent to the left of the driver would reduce a lot of head/face injuries...though in all, major leg/foot injuries are a certainty.
They were also rated moderate instead of poor. Not quite the worst performance.
You see dummies impact the leftmost dash because the airbags shifted with the structure of the car, I remember hearing this in an IIHS video.
@@MylesV Marginal right?
I was thinking this too
So far I'm 43 minutes in and the Toyota Prius and Chevrolet Sonic definitely take the cake as to the most dangerous driver's side-curtain airbags. I don't believe I've ever seen an airbag shove an occupant's head outside the vehicle before. I'd imagine anyone who gets hit with that side-curtain airbag would have a broken neck.

These crash tests remind me about this Pajero Sport (Montero in some countries) small overlap crash that involved famous Indonesian actress about a week ago..unfortunately she (sat on second row/left side) died instantly in that accident along with her husband who sat at the front seat (left side)
The one thing i recognized with most of those tests, the steeringwheelairbag deploys, but through diagonal forces the head lands on the airbag most of the times but slips sideways away onto the dashboard. We really should think of a wider airbag or an airbag with "wings" on each side, to accommodate for that apparent issue. Sidewallairbags maybe reduce the impact further, but the diagonal forces get the head in between the safetyzones, therefore avoiding them almost entirely. Also seen in this footage, how heavy cars still carry on so much momentum, that they tend to go on further, before finally getting the spin. Another point for me to say: SUVs are the bane of humanity. High weight, bad viewangles and high center of gravity. Bad in all regards. I am sitting higher in a VW Transporter AND have more carrying space than a SUV will ever have. Get away from those unsafe vehicles, they use loopholes in the system to avoid some regulatory requirements
If you're in a car and get hit by a tall truck, these tests are meaningless. With an SUV you get better gas mileage than a truck but better safety than a car. Especially a Subaru or Volvo. I really really want to buy a new Subaru or Volvo midsized SUV but I just got laid off so I'm too broke and can't afford it. 😓
@@InvertOtaku-os9lj all suvs worldwide should be banned immediately. They dont have better gasmileage, they dont have good space for transporting big things and they definitely dont let you sit that much higher than regular cars. Instead of that shitty suv take a van. Way better spaceusage and you will sit higher than in those shitty suvs, which are impractical and just oversized egoboosters
New Subaru Forester gets 33 mpg highway. New Dodge Charger gets 30 mpg highway (with base V6) or 27 highway (V8)... Subaru also has a charity organization:
"Share the Love
A lot of love comes out of a Subaru.
Love is all around at the 2023 Subaru Share the Love® Event. Purchase or lease a new Subaru between November 16, 2023 and January 2, 2024 and Subaru and our retailers will donate a minimum of $300 to charity.
By the end of this, our 16th year, Subaru and our retailers will have donated more than $285 million to national charities and hometown charities..."
But sure yeah let's just shit on SUVs without any fucking research whatsoever into their company policies and ACTUALLY LESS EMISSIONS and better mpg than many full size CARS.
You are in need of a serious rethinking on your viewpoints. I will say that while indeed many people who own trucks and SUVs don't need them or use them for their intended purposes, some actually DO. Regardless, driving a van and then saying SUVs should be banned is some fucking seriously messed up mental gymnastics.
I will not however say anything bad about you being a brony as I was one once, before I became an Otaku. (Loved the creation of sisterhood between Rainbow Dash and Scootaloo...)
Also, I tend to be overly dramatic in debating vehicle stuff, so I apologize for the aggression. I don't hate you for your view, I just think the suggestion of outright bans is overkill and illogical. We should focus on making our government actually follow through with their promise to install nationwide accessible EV charging stations. Not that I want the internal combustion engine phased out just yet but, still, I hate fake politician promises that are never delivered upon. I wanted Tulsi Gabbard or Rand Paul, not Biden or Trump 😆
There is one trend I see with majority of these poor/marginal crash tests: The wheel crunches into the area behind the engine... where the steering column/steering pedals and the driver's legs are...
I remember seeing majority of the best small front overlap crashes involving either the car changing trajectory significantly to dissipate the energy or the wheel coming out of the wheel well preventing it from caving into the driver footwell area.
I also think knee airbags would help greatly. BMW and a few other manufacturers had them but most didn’t early on. Many of those year vehicles are still on the road and would have helped a lot in terms of reducing leg injuries.
Very true. It seems like they could develop a wheel that could basically disintegrate upon impact with the footwell structure. Wheel intrusion is the most common thing that almost all of these cars experience.
Well, having a wheel that easily disintegrates could potentially be dangerous, let's say that you hit a pothole at high speed for example, you don't want the wheel to fall to pieces in that moment.
In a crash test, if the car body slides to the opposite side during a small overlap, the result may not be accurate.
(1:03:30) Are we gonna talk about the screwdriver that had been yeeted from the engine area? LMAO!
Am I going to watch a full hour of this... Yes yes I am.
So from what I’ve seen, if you cant avoid the crash, a better way to do it is to hit it straight on.
What a difference 7 years makes. The 2018 Hyundai Elantra does incredibly well on this test. Not so for the 2012 Sonata, which is a slightly bigger car too!
IIHS should start testing small overlap at 80KM/h because that's the speed on the highway.
Where are you gonna find a stationary unmovable small overlap on the highway?
Airbag and vehicle technology has come a long way in 10 years
Small overlap crashes are the toughest on any car so I’m not surprised by the amount of damage…
Yay. I love having to listen to annoying music
😂
The moment you should realize a full but "controlled" frontal crash most of the time is better than a failing attempt to avoid the crash. If you can..
Plz tell me why the music got stupid funky at 31:56 for the scion 😫😈🤩💯
The wrangler though 1:08:28
Imagine being the only auto manufacturer in the past 4 years to have a car score negatively in the small overlap.
I’m not too familiar with jeeps but looks like that generation came out in 2018 and is still currently produced.
I wonder what went so horrible wrong on the 2019 where that happened.
It did what every vehicle with an internal high strength roll bar would do, look at the rate of fatalities, the wrangler is one of safest vehicles on the road.
@@4nciite ikr that’s what I try to tell people I’ve also been in a high speed accident before in a wrangler jl and I am still here
I can literally watch this all day long and never get bored from it
Happy I didn’t see any Volvos in there (at least I don’t think so!)
Didn't see any 2012-2018 Ford Focus either. Does that mean the Focus is a very safe car in the small overlap test?
Volvo has its own advanced crash testing facility, there's no way they'll get any car out that doesn't do extremely well
The Volvo probably destroyed the test wall.
Volvo invented crumple zones. Whole car was made specifically to protect the cabin even in the 80's
I don’t think you have anything to worry about with Volvo they introduced the 3 point safety belt in 1959, all other manufacturers didn’t have a 3 point safety belt for many years later. Volvo’s are extremely safe cars and trucks.👍

The wrangler is the best: it directly jumps over! But this asymmetrical test is very hard due to the very, very limited section of the car included into the impact
This is the year Volvo became a legend in passenger safety with its then already decade-old XC90.
Well you really chose a good song for 2013 18:13
I couldn’t even imagine how unsafe the cars from the 80s’ are
Volvo & Mercedes were the safest car in that time , even now
The cars get worse every year. This was only a 40 mph crash test, just think what these cars would look like in a 70 or 80 mph crash.
Look up 59 bel Air 09 Malibu crash test
@@craigmarr7986 tell me you know nothing about crashes without telling me. Cars are made to absorb the impact. A car that doesn’t get much damage from the crash sends all that impact force straight to you, destroying or at the very least damaging your internals. After such a crash, most likely you’d be dead. And if you do survive, life would look very different.
@@CJEMSChannel So what good are crush zones when the people get crushed, and killed in the accident, that makes your seatbelts, and airbags of no affect, and useless.
Any time the A-pillar is distorted then the results aren't going to be good. The VW's did well in that category but had intrusion into the footwell from the front wheel assembly. Maybe make a wheel that will break apart or break loose when coming into contact with the footwell. Even with the wheel becoming completely braken off from the car would produce better foot/leg injury results. I ALWAYS look up these tests when I am car shopping. Glad that I drive a VW!
This helps me understand how my father died in a crash in 2009 His air bag deployed but his skull was still crushed in from the impact rip dad
Oh F my... i would be purchasing the bulk of this list personally...now im glad i watched this!
I thought this was a compilation of the worst for all years in like 5 mins, glad it’s all of them though, actually.
00:37 it's fine, Scotty Kilmer doesn't care, his 94 Celica is safer than this Camry anyway.
Who cares about Scott Kilmer is just a fuck
Allmost all the crash dolls miss the airbag. So if you are about to crash like this I suggest lodging quickly to the right just before impact
so many well known cars in this list...
this is so satisfying to watch
2012 was not a good year for toyota if they had 4 poor crashtest cars
But top safety pick +
Do you just ignore that?? This was the FIRST year that small overlap test was introduced, legit none of the manufactures are ready. And all toyota models performed great in every other test
Great soundstracks and video!
Interesting. Thanks!
Did anyone notice the screwdriver that flew out from under the hood on the Chevy 1500 1:03:20
What
Ohhh
Jeep motto: We build them poorly for your safety. You can't crash them if it's in the shop for repairs. If you do crash and the initial impact doesn't kill you maybe the 2nd or 3rd will as it rolls and hits everything around it
no competition isn't good for us customers
@N P Your comment doesn't make any sense. What does FCA/Stellantis shit quality have to do with Ford, GM, or Volvo? I've owned vehicles from AMC, Chevy, Ford, Jeep, Mazda, Studebaker, Subaru, and Toyota. The Jeeps were by far the most unreliable and recall ridden. I've never owned a Volvo because they seemed boring or weren't offered in AWD, and aren't even in consideration now that they are owned by Chinese Geely. I don't see myself buying any new "American" vehicle anytime soon unless they seriously improve their quality. Japanese and Korean brands are just better and have been for quite a while.
e es sorrg about that
Let him do his own text you fucking shit idiot you 💩
Watching so many respected cars get destroyed like little toys, makes you anxious...
Thank you posting the music too, very nice
I guess auto makers thought the world was going to end in 2012 like most of us did. Cuz it was probably the worst year in automotive safety and quality.
No 1912 was worst, let's see a model-T in a small over lap crash test
2012 is honestly the best, because of this tough test being introduced, cars got much safer
No it’s just that 2012 was the first year for this specific test so the 2012 cars weren’t made for this
Nope, that title goes to the year the IIHS was instated (I think ‘96). Back then hardly any car could even pass the moderate overlap test. I can’t even imagine how they’d perform in this test given that it puts way more stress on the car
The frontal airbags, in my opinion, are causing severe damage to the servical vertebrae, feet is observed as the neck of the dummin turns, causing great damage, it is necessary to improve its traditional design.
Suprised to see C klass 2012 like that,since 2008 model got it way way better on crash test
Toyota replied; “it’s all the suppliers fault!”
It is tho, you didn’t kotice how many Japanese companies share the same suppliers for airbags and safety equipment
@@Crummieboi56 I work in the industry, you don’t need to lecture me on the industry. Since you don’t work in the industry, you probably don’t know that parts are custom made for each company, sometimes even engineered by the automotive company. I was referring on Toyota’s unprofessional habit of throwing suppliers under the bus like with their frame and pedal issues.
I liked the way the Lincoln glanced off the wall on impact, it could be firewall strength, that caused that, which is what will save you in this type of impact anyway, and as you see micro cars are death traps, they don't have the length of body to absorb the impact. Steering wheel airbag stability is the main problem too, if it doesn't stay in front of you it's no use to you.
I think the Yaris should have gotten a poor and not a marginal rating. The dummy completely missed the airbag and if not for the seatbelt would have been ejected out of the car. Same for the sonic as the side airbags were very late to deploy and instead trapped the head in the door card.
Cool video bro, do more!
Every vehicle got bitch slapped by that barrier.
A clever emoji is needed on that barrier.
You missed the 2015 Chrysler 300!!!
Edit: Also I watched this entire video 3 times.
oh...
Thanks a lot for pointing it out
No problem! Just wanted to help.
Not a single Subaru on the list. that should tell you something.
Subaru's been testing it's cars since the 360
Quite the company
Acura looked worse than the c class to be honest. C class had minimal cab intrusion and cabin structure held up well
Safest (and most stylish) cheap car you can buy is Mazda.... everyone needs to buy one
The Sonic's airbag karate chopped the dummy in the back of the head. That CX9, 5, Chrysler van, Journey and Quest.
We all know THAT "Korean Jukebox" is a POS!!
Interesting to see that at least the Volkswagen safety cages appear to have held up pretty consistently across different models.
25:55 we own a 2009 RAV4, that 2013 one got DESTROYED! If you look closely, you can see the windscreen pillar go straight into the cabin and the entire body go upwards.
Driver side headlight be like "Turn Turn Turn ... NOOOOOO"
Lol
It's never a good thing to meet your front wheel while driving.
11:55 Has anyone noticed how late the airbag opened?
Now I am getting too addicted to this video
The Toyota camera is a definite hell no
What speed is it 40 mph?
Yes
Good music 🎶🎶
Too many misses of the head airbag. Awesome footage!
Love to listen to these songs
Un Mercedes-Benz sin bolsas de aire de cortina es simplemente inaceptable!
Si
It did have it just did not deploy
BTW I'm the same person who commented si
So, if you are about to be hit head-on...with small overlap with no way to avoid the hit, steer INTO the obstacle and MAXIMIZE the surface area of the car that hits object/other vehicle.
49:32
Airbag: *deploys*
Driver: let me give you a kiss
Airbag: hell no *moves out of the way*
50:31
Airbag: *puffs up in a funny way*
Whoever posted this video is doing God's work!
The Jeep Flew like a BOSS
LMAO!😂
Before you get more traffic on your channel, I'd just let you know that it's a bad idea from an IP point of view to use the Netflix sound and intro-like font for your intro.
Small overlap is harder to stay safe against due to misalignment of the airbags upon impact of which can only be maintained with a stiffer cabin
Wow, the 2012 Camry results are really shocking
First volvo s40 (1997) show better results, and does better in 2002 moderate overlap.
S90 is the safest car on the market.
Go safe, go volvo.
they should make the car out of the same stuff they make the crash barrier out of
This is some dope ass rave music for being a crash test compilation
Head says “Ah air bag”!
Steering wheel “Fooled You”!
Lol
I wonder if this overlap crash situation is generally quite difficult to handle safely and securely by a vehicle, depending on its design?
