Re: Smart car whereabouts??

Well it is a little hard to concentrate on work so far as I am pretty excited to drive it off the lot

To demonstrate the saftey there was a Smart T-boned on the highway by an SUV in the Medicine Hat area at about 120-160km/h recently and the driver suffered some injuries but the Smart did very well all things considering.

Just push the quad out of his wheelchair and he won't be going anywhere fast!

Tasteless, yet hilarious!

Wouldn't mind seeing that, cause I saw a staged vid of a Jeep T-boning an Accord at 55 mph and it was almost torn in half. They are safer than a lot of cars though.

Here are a couple pics, the other vehicle left the road on the drivers side and then attempted to return to the highway but overcorrected and headed straight into the side of the Smart pushing it and then causing it to roll 1.5 times. The RCMP estimate the impact to be between 120-160km/h as the driver appears to have been intoxicated at 8am. From what I have read the Smart seems to have survived very well but we are trying to find some pics of the Kia Sorrento to see how it faired.




The driver is at home recovering and plans to get another Smart as soon as he can.
