I love threads like these, they always encourage people to drive safer ![]() I don't think they really say anything about the safety of the Yaris (or the lack there of).. As any car going fast enough will be turned into a pile of twisted metal in an accident. Remember that Ferrari Enzo ($1 million dollar car) that got cut in half by the telephone pole where one half ended up about 200 feet away from the other half, yet the telephone pole was still standing? http://www.joystiq.com/2006/02/28/gi...ore-and-after/ |

![]() Not much needs to be said. Since I joined here several people have totaled their Yarii and walked away without a scratch. I recall there was only case where a driver was hospitalized with injuries. It may be small and "fragile", but you'd be surprised at how well it can protect if the time comes. That's proof enough. As for Steffan, he was asking for it. That rich dumbass...

story behind the pictures.
Well here goes the story. I was February 8th, 2009. I was driving at 3 AM when this red Dodge Ram 2500(the red truck seen on the pictures) made a sudden left turn in front of me. I wasn’t able to even break at all. Once we crashed both cars shut down. I had a tiny cut on my forehead and nose. I wasn’t able to get out of the car so I had to wait for the firemen to open the door. Due to the severe damage of my car they took my immediately to the ER to make sure I did not have any internal bleeding or something broken. After about 4 hours I was released because everything was good with me. I just went to the chiropractor because my shin was in a pain. After a few visits my shin was like new!
The next day I found out that the truck driver was under the influence of alcohol. |
