Doesn’t matter. You get hit head on by ANYTHING in that little smart and it’s all over. There are very few cars on the road that weight less than a smart so the smart is going to have to absorb more energy in any crash. With no crumple zone to absorb that energy guess who’s left to pay Mr Newton? The passengers.
