Re: Cancel My Order for a Smart Car!
Painbringer wins the prize first. VW Crossfox Below is another pic of one in an accident. Look at the pic above where the vehicle is shown in front of the white truck look by the rear wheels and you can see the same letters as below. BTW pickup trucks even 3/4 ton are the bigest death traps out there. Most have a safety rating of 1 or 2 out of 5. Most SUV's are 2 to 3. Vans on the other hand have safety ratings of 4 and 5. |

Re: Cancel My Order for a Smart Car!
Here are some comments about this accident. Hi there From pic #2 I can tell it's really a VW Cross Fox. The plates start with DO, which means the car is originally from São Paulo (SP) state in Brazil (first letters "B", "C" and "D" were reserved for São Paulo State). From pic #3 I can tell the accident happened somewhere inland the São Paulo state. The leftmost white-black-red car in the picture is a typical SP police car. The ambulance on the right of the pic also is typical from SP. The guy on gray uniform beside the ambulance is a SP state police officer. Furthermore, that kind of truck is very commonly seen in inland roads in SP and are used to carry sugar-cane. I can't tell from the pictures, but they usually are a tractor and two trailers filled with just harvested sugar cane, which make them very heavy. They are very slow when climbing up and can be dangerously fast when going down. The pics suggest that the CrossFox driver invaded the truck's lane. It's not uncommon to drivers to sleep on the wheels driving on these long straight sections of the reads. Thank you for not posting strong graphics and covering parts of the posted pictures. Although quite morbid, I think that letting people know how ugly a crash scene can be can help to increase the awareness of how a dangerous weapon our beloved cars can become. Please, post my name as just "M.R.". I'm from São Paulo city, in Brazil. |

Re: Cancel My Order for a Smart Car!
Yep..... fuckers that buy these little pieces of shit cause they get 500 mpg dont realise the consquences should they ever be involved in an accident. Even a slow speed accident can result in death & their picture ending up on here for everyone to laugh at. Give me 6 feet of solid metal betwwen me & the front of the car anyday. For fucks sake...if you drive a smart car you could die in a head on collision with an old lady pushing a shopping cart !!! |
