If that car is so smart, why the heck didn't it avoid that big concrete wall in the road??? Not a smart car in my opinion. Reminds me of a few fish I've owned. (I'm in water, what would happen if I jumped out?)

That car actually stood up very well! The front end demolished....it's designed to do that to dissapate energy, and the passanger compartment retained it's shape fairly well. Much better than I expected!

Look at the footspace though, it appears as though the front end was mangled where your feet would go. I would hate to lose my feet....
