Snip: "Small cars get poor marks in collision tests:

Micro cars can give motorists top-notch fuel efficiency at a competitive price, but the insurance industry says they don't fare too well in collisions with larger vehicles."

Seriously, someone had to waste money to do studies to come up with these conclusions?

If everyone drove light fuel efficient cars it would'nt matter. I understand trucks and vans for hauling ,towing, and work related tasks, but soccer mom does'nt need 8000lbs of suv to get that kid to the soccer field.

I used to not give a sh!t about this kind of stuff, but conspicuous consumption that risks my life, p!sses me off lately.

oh yea-I recently bought a Honda Fit that halls my family of 4 very comfortably, and get over 38mpg I dont care how you drive it.

No, they didn't... but someone got to have a lot of fun doing destructive testing.

Pretty sure "they" say my motorcycle doesn't do well in collision tests either. ;D
