Rick, can't really figure out the message from the results of the test. As best as I tell, there are two of them. 1) Don't hit solid objects at 70 mph. 2) There is a limit as to how small a car can be and allow the driver to survive such a crash, as the larger car created fatal G forces even though it was "safer".

Number one, I already knew. Number two, I wish I knew the limit.

I'm not sure either what they accomplished by doing the test. I'ts kinda like going off Niagra Falls in a barrel. I was amazed that the doors opened afterwards.

How's that saying go? You can learn alot from a dummy:) Oh wait a minute there were no dummies:eek: And that means 350lbs were missing from the cars, I wonder how the cars would fair with the occupant weight present.
