overlap test is bullshit anyway.

hell my car has 5 star crash test muh airbags front and side 5 stars n shit and it still fails the overlap test

>that passenger compartment intrusion

you never want to see the roofline and side skirts bend outwards like that, the passenger compartment's been compromised = people are almost certainly injured

>>16776923
the overlap test represents one of the most common accident situations though, its an important test

Why would toyota spend a lot more on the construction of a safer car when you muricucks think >>16776894 is acceptable in 2017.

They make em safer elsewhere
>pic highly related 2013 model

>>16776939
the small over lap is bullshit m8.

>>16776948
>They make em safer elsewhere
kys

>>16776874
is it really relevant? I have heard that manufacturers build their cars for these tests specifically which is why early 90's cars which weren't built for these tests had like one to two stars but are still safe in general

>>16776948
that was almost certainly a lower speed test, unless you can provide a source that it was at 40mph.

>>16776952
refute my point please

>>16776975
if they're building them to perform well in these test, then theyre going to perform well in real life situations, thats the point of the tests...

>>16776975
That was such retarded logic that it hurt to read this

>>16776975
t. delusional poorfag with a 90s shitbox trying to talk himself into thinking he's safe in his rustbucket deathtrap

>>16776983
well some criteria in these tests are bs tho, but I am not an expert...I was just wondering because I wanna get an e36 which has 1 star and people say it's still safe but just wasn't built to perform well in these specific tests from euroncap

>>16776874
>m-muh safety
What are you a pussy? Don't crash or don't complain when you do

>>16776948
>>16776977

ah i see whats different, that impact is a full frontal impact against a deforming wall, its much easier to dissipate energy with the whole car. also you can still see passenger compartment intrusion in this pic which is again no bueno

>>16777008
>implying the crash is always your fault

There are a lot of stupid people driving on the road

>>16777007
those people are dumb, crash safety is going to improve the newer the cars get, you wont get obliterated at any impact like you're in a bel aire, but you wont fare as well as even some of the worst performing cars of today.

They did better in 2015.

>>16777008
yeah im sure you'd be saying that when some 80 year old senile fuck runs off the highway and into oncoming traffic. If you think you can avoid any crash situation you're a shitty driver

>>16777047
>some 80 year old senile fuck runs off the highway and into oncoming traffic
That's never happened to me, and it never will

>>16777076
so because it never happened to you means it never happened ever and people who want to be safe when unavoidable situations happen are pussies?

>>16777093
>unavoidable
Absolutely no such thing. There is no crash that cannot be prevented by a capable driver

>>16777106
and there it is, proving he's a shitty driver

>>16777106
that's bs, you may be able to minimize the damage if you have extremely quick reflexes like a pro driver, but not every crash is avoidable, people are just too fucking stupid

>>16776948
>comparing small overlap to moderate or full headon
you are some sort of retard

>>16777106
Hopefully your bus driver is half awake then.

>>16777225
My bus driver is extremely attentive. That's why I bought a Green Pass

>>16776975
>still safe in general
They're shit man. I'm poor too and don't like to think about it but realistically if any of the normie housewives hit me with their 8000lb suv I'd end up pancaked in what's left of the trunk dying in agony as it catches fire.

>small overlap test
>important
Yeah sure. It's so calming to know that cars are not not made overall safe and tough but specifically tough in designated areas to pass tests well.
