Re: Re:[DML] Safety Features

Well, actually I must disagree. That crash was at less than 25 mph. I feel
much safer in a car that survives a 25mph hit, because I know that it will
help me survive a 40mph crash. I don't think there would be much room left
for your legs in that Nissan if we were going 40. From what I saw I would
say that DeLorean is safer at higher speeds because it doesn't crush like a
soda can.... crashing you inside at the same time. I like that ;o)
That's just my opinion... as always, I might be wrong.

Take care,
