Re:[DML] Safety Features

Don't judge a car's safety by how it survives a crash! All new cars 
are designed to crush in a crash to absorb the impact energy so as
not 
to transmit in into the passenger compartment. An older car hitting a 
newer car will usually result in severe damage to the newer car. The 
logic is a car is repairable-replaceble but is is much cheaper to 
reduce the injuries to the occupants then have less damage to the 
vehicles. Just look at a car after the rescuers cut a car open to
make 
extrication without further injuries possible. If the car wasn't 
totaled in the accident it was after the first responders got through 
with it. The Delorean is a safe vehicle as far as it can be being a 
LOW, SMALL 2 door sports car. Please don't test it's crashworthiness, 
just be aware that it is not the most noticeable car on the road
under 
most conditions, especially to that SUV with the person on the cell 
phone! One thing you could add to help is a third brake light on the 
rear louvre.
