The first time I saw a smart car on the road I had the family with me. I immediately said "Smart Car, the last car you'll ever buy........cause you won't survive a fender bender in the dam thing!!!"

They are all over the place in S. FL. The "glitch" in that car is it stands up well in a crash but your internal organs don't! I saw a crash test at highway speeds and the car did great, very little broken glass and the doors still opened. However the G forces absorbed by the passengers would explode your organs inside your body......not good!
