How safe is your car ?
How safe is your car ?
volvo
Isn't this a rebadged Mitsubishi?
>mfw I realize that isn't fluid from either car
I'm not really sure, but it's probably fine
yes, there were still two persons in there according to the story to it.
>no seatbelts or airbags
Gotta be careful on the highway
> 2011 Focus
Very, so long as I don't go head-on into HGVs.
i thought the mitsubishi was a rebadged volvo
4 stars NCAP back in 99.
>Ferd Exploder
I'm good as long as I don't roll over
pretty safe.
was going 40 with a head on collision and walk out later of the hospital that day with only a badly bruised collar bone
my cousins accord is pretty safe.
retard in venza was driving too fast with no headlights.
5 star niggas.
I think they just share a joint-developed platform, not strictly a rebadge
pretty safe m8
safety is for faggots and women
god forbid i want to live
Just dont buy a car from the 60s and expect to be safe

...
>only own motorcycles
Ejecto seats cuz
This.
If I need to avoid anything, I just grab a handful of front and front flip over the obstacle.
rolling coffin
Its fucking boring Cuckmobile, but its safe
youtube.com
There was a 5 year old girl with her dad in that car and he did nothing wrong, other than perhaps not staying far enough back. The semi just crushed them into the back of another semi.
I cringe every time I see people selling style bars as roll bars.
I really should buy a roll bar for mine but I keep putting it off in favor of new tools and car parts
...
Nigga are you me.
>Almost enough for cage
Oh look, air compressor and tool set on sale
>Buy
Ya def the same. No one else in the world buys tools.
People will tell you unibody is fine because it has built-in crumple zones and it's designed to absorb impact.
BOF is still 10x better, especially if you get fucking sandwiched.
I bought an engine hoist from HF because labor day sale instead of roll cage
fuck living I guess
Looks like oil with Kitty litter on it
Engine stand... lol.
but an engine hoist is like $250.00
a proper roll cage would be at least $1,000 if you actually want it to work
that won't matter at 100 miles an hour sideways into a tree
>A whole grand
As an NZfag, I can get a 6 point half cage for $800 in my miata, drive in drive out.
It's well known that converting any currency to NZD is x2.
A half cage is a great idea if you assume your windshield won't collapse under the weight of the car.
Btw, it will collapse under the weight of the car.
Enjoy not having a head after you roll your fagmobile.
There's about 10 feet of space between the A-taco and headrest. You're right for the most part, though.
This. 5 star master race here.
yeah, but I had like $900 in my acct. so I couldn't buy both at the time
>$900
what if you lost your job or something? what the fuck would you do?
god damn Americans, I tell ya...
yeah, i'm going to have $100k just sitting around when i'm 21 and still in college
hobos are richer than 40% off Americans. Net value over zero and all
>21
>in college
>blowing all your money on garbage for a shitty old Miata
holy fuck the absolute state of American youth
what else would I spend it on? books? the govt. pays for those
>the govt. pays for those
are you on some kind of government nigger gibs program?
honestly i just want to know what the bodies look like when the car is pancaked flat. god it's just so sad that humans can die is such an embarassing way, to be flatter than paper
Florida gives you money to go to school, no matter how poor you are
The roads were built for nihilists
79 corvette, total death trap
Hits you right in the feels.
My car in a nutshell.
Car:
>sub 800kg
>no ESP
>crumble zone pretty much non existant
>front wheel next lo leg
>rear end creates enogh lift to oversteer above 150 km/h
It is a deathbox with airbags.
Bike:
>drum brakes
>cable action drum brakes
>no ABS
>no indicator lights
>no horn
>gas tank ventilation is hole cap
>caburettor regulary leaks fuel on aircooled engine
>2-strake that often siezes
>cable actuated clutch
And I never wear full protective clothing...
could be worse
>Oh wow how dare he spend money on something other than college paraphernalia!
>Wait, he doesn't need to pay for that? How dare he not spend money on that paraphernalia! Government handouts! Nigger nigger nigger nigger!
Holy fuck, the absolute state of Veeky Forums.
This
>implying I can die
More than half of Veeky Forums would die in a head on collision because they ride in shitboxes. Your 2004 Honda civic is not going to save you from marry in her f250 while she is ordering McDonald's on her door dash app.
The last rating it got was significantly worse than average, in 2009
It'll be fine
bretty gud
>How safe is your car ?
Too safe.
I dont have a car
>drive car with 10 airbags
>take risks because you feel safe
vs
>drive car with 1 or 0 airbags
>take less risks
>What are assets?
Nope.
>have pins holding up headliner
if the side airbags ever go off im probably going to die
Kek I think this gif is from the video where they show him Bareback Mountain
>ANCAP
You sure you can trust these?
>Bareback Mountain
is there something you want to tell us?
Realised I got it wrong right after hitting post
I have two kids because no condom
Kek
God damn that's fucked up
The Chad "Pedestrian Annihilator"
>that torn bag of toys
fuck
I obey the rules of the road and only drive if it has my full concentration. So a solid 5 star safety rating.
>he did nothing wrong
>apart from the wrong thing he did
yes I'm sure all those people who are way smarter than you with access to much more equipment than you to test their theories and decided unibody is safer than BOF were wrong.
Is it even legal to have no seatbelts? (I think it is in murica at least)
It's actually a model banned in demolition derby for being too much of a tank .
My car is very rusty, The breaks are shit,the seat belt is close to breaking, and no traction control. At least I don't have a airbag so if I do crash I should be killed pretty quickly
Ok I guess, although I think they changed the rules after my car was tested because almost everything was getting 4/5 stars
>other than perhaps not staying far enough back. The semi just crushed them into the back of another semi.
So the driver was an idiot, and the semi driver was an idiot also (but thats to be expected from "professionals of the wheel")
>so if I do crash I should be killed pretty quickly
Nah bruv, the wheel will just smash your chest as the engine pushes the steering column back, and you'll end losing an arm and have a permanently disabled lung, so you'll wheeze along for the next 40 years collecting disability and hating every moment of life.
There isn't a car in the world that would survive that. They're tested for like 55mph impacts under the assumption that people slow down before crashing.
this is why i like motorcycles
just skip the helmet and death is guaranteed
>road rash on your skull
>brain falls out
>nothing wrong
Except for driving a fucking Tico.
That thing was already a deathtrap 20 years ago, and all the structural components probably rusted apart a decade ago.
I hope you have funeral costs covered
Well, you aren't wrong.
Did they died'd?
im thinking of getting a 1995 jeep YJ i saw for a good price, but im now realizing it doesnt have airbags, and people dont know how to drive very well in germany, should i get a bucket seat and 5 pt harness?
My car is from the era of "Brand new feature: manually adjusted shoulder belts for driver only!"
So, car will be fine, I won't
Well I'm glad I'm inside this fucking car, not outside of it.
>take less risks
>Chad in his brodozer t-bones you
oops
>brodozer
Third world problems.
>turk in his 3-series t-bones you
oops.
could be worse
I'm sure It's safe
NASCAR drivers commonly survive crashes at 200 mph. Consumer vehicles have a 65% fatality rate ate 60mph. Engineers are payed to cut cost and they can do that by cutting and cuting until they just barely pass safety tests. Unibody is a cost saving measure. Clearly car can be made infinity safer.
The difference is:
>rollcage
>helmet
>protective clothing
>no head on colision
