so sitting at a light today in my work truck with a smart car in front of me I figured id hate to be that guy in that car if he ever stopped quick. 72,000lbs fully loaded truck would hurt hitting a smart car ---

The youtube videos look so sick though lol. ---

You can’t beat physics they will get messed up in many occasions due to their dimensions and lack of crumple zones. One major advantage is that they are light and they won’t sit there and absorb the impact but rather move out of the way in the direction of the impact dissapating some force that way. ---
