That worked out good for you because you were stationary at the time. If you were moving at highway speed and slammed into something, you would be better off in the Hyundai, where the front end of the car is sacrificed to help cushion the stop a bit. This is, of course, assuming that you hit an object that isn't easily movable, and that the Hyundai's passenger compartment is strong enough to not collapse.
Now if your Detroit Steel smacks into the Hyundai at speed, chances are that it wouldn't come to a dead stop, and the Hyundai would be smacked off the road. In that case, Detroit Steel wins. All depends on the accident.
- deveac 13y agoVery true. I'm just glad I wasn't on my motorcycle. I've been rear-ended three times in my life (car all three times). It doesn't matter how defensively you drive, -you can't eliminate all of the risk from other drivers.
