I'd like to see any online referene to one of those accidents involving a smart car. Shouldn't be too hard, eh?Have you watched the video .. ? I see them here daily .. my father in law works with the maple Ridge fire dept prying people out of these all the time .... when you wreck one of these your pretty much a goner .. secondly .. suck dick .. I was more than anything making a joke about them ..
I mean I can find accident reports for my old town in Abbotsford, and thats' why more bumfuck than maple ridge.

I bet they pry people off the pavement from riding motorcycles a whole lot more in Maple Ridge. I would love to see the statistics on injuries and deaths from Smart Car accidents in comparison to other vehicles as a percentage of cars on the road.
Do I want to get hit by another car? No. Not sure my Jeep wrangler is any safer. Only accident I have heard about here the guy flipped several times and walked away without a scratch. Bring on the stats.Giant Boob High Def Trifectas

Are you serious they drove at 70 into a solid wall and went from 70 > 0 in less than a second, how can you even compare the two? Crashing like that your body just couldnt handle it whatever vehicle you are in.oh yeah real pieces of shit lol
youtube it
i'm pretty sure i'd rather be in a hummer then a smart car getting smacked by just about any car
and not true at all i've been hit at around 70mph and lived spun around 3 times into lanes of on coming traffic hit a guard rail slid over 200 ft hit the guard rail again and got out laughing, and that was in a mitsubishi 3000gt vr4☻Comment

When I used to move furniture for a living I rode in 18 wheelers a lot. One time when fully loaded we were rear ended and we never felt a damn thing, so that explains it.i think i read a news article recently about a lorry driver who drove into the back of a smart car, the smart car got wedged on the trucks front and the truck driver did not even know he had hit it, the truck driver continued driving down the motorway until someone spotted this and called the cops and they pulled him over.
the people in the smart car just had to sit and wait whilst they were driven down the motorway stuck on the front of the truck.

But no, I'd never drive in one of those things.Herschel Savage

I can't find anything on them actually in any town pertaining to an actual accident .. in the same breath there are very rare remarks regarding any "type" of the vehicle strangely enough .. 1 story in Germany regarding a walk away from a crash ..and conflicting stories about how they have a great safety rating for the size of car .. but that they are NOT good for taller or larger sized occupants .. (me) ..
I was not being a jerk first .. you were .. what I said is what I have been told by numerous guys in the fire dept .. both here and Burnaby ..No sig .. just meComment

I think they'd be real handy in the city. You aren't driving too fast so the collision are minimal. They'd also be awesome for parking which is probably my biggest gripe with driving here in the first place.Comment

It might be easier for your wife to just pay attention to the road since she would be charged with manslaughter in such a scenario and you'd probably lose your home in the civil lawsuit by the family.Comment

I take it on the highway, 18wheelers around. Never makes me scared. I would be willing to bet the people that say that they would be scared have never driven one. It drives a lot bigger than it looks. It weighs almost 2000lbs and is a solid little car. Don't be a pussy, get a smart car! None of us are getting out of this alive anyway. Now a motorcycle, that makes me scared.

A few Reasons to own a smart car
1. 40 miles per gallon
2. Chicks love them. If I was single this car would get me laid more than a porsche ever did.
3. Mercedes makes it, so when you take it in for service you get treated like a king by the mercedes people.
4. It is a lot of FUN to drive and own.

My 1973 MG that I sold right before I moved to Vegas a couple of months back got 30 miles per gallon...and I had a supercharger on it.
WTF? 40 miles per gallon is it? I figured it would be 60 mpg or something. Damn.-Robbie

It was a series of tradeoffs for the company. The original got around 60. It was light as a feather and had a weaker engine. The new one had to be safe for the American Market (as you have seen by all the comments) . It is a straight gas engine, so unlike a prius that has a second electric motor this one only has one engine. But, I didn't get it for the gas mileage, I got it because it was so cool.I like the car...but wow...only 40 miles per gallon? That's the best our "modern technology" can do?

Well, isn't that what everybody is saying here? If anything happens in a smart car it's over? And owning it is also a rush. Drive one, then report back.

I wasn't being a jerk, I was calling you on the carpet. You are prone to "Tall stories" whenever you want to make a point, and I was asking for verification.I can't find anything on them actually in any town pertaining to an actual accident .. in the same breath there are very rare remarks regarding any "type" of the vehicle strangely enough .. 1 story in Germany regarding a walk away from a crash ..and conflicting stories about how they have a great safety rating for the size of car .. but that they are NOT good for taller or larger sized occupants .. (me) ..
I was not being a jerk first .. you were .. what I said is what I have been told by numerous guys in the fire dept .. both here and Burnaby ..
I can tell you I talked to Fire Fighters here in Florida who said that the smart car doesn't get into accidents because it just squeezes out of the way in the event of an accident. Of course I have ZERO proof to back that up, but just believe me, okay? Cause I'm saying it, so it must be true.
