Luxury cars score low in new crash test

http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-201_162-57492566/luxury-cars-score-low-in-new-crash-test/

> The test strikes 25 percent of a car’s front end into a five-foot rigid barrier at 40 miles per hour. <==
The guy was probably going twice that fast. You can’t build a car that will change the laws of physics.

The witness to it said the car “jack-knifed”. I’ve seen semi- trailer rigs do that, but never a car or pick-up. The engine & tranny wound-up 100yds away. A palm tree is soft and spongy. No way an impact would have done what the film clip shows. Too freaky for an M-B.

I think the accident was rigged, as ‘payback’ for what he did to Gen MacChrystal.
