Is that rear bumper off of an ATV?

Doesn't look like it has much in the way of articulation.

The guy that has a summer cabin on the property above me, his G/F has a smart car and he has to mow the driveway just so she can get the stupid thing up the hill, if the grass gets to tall.....the so-called money they saved in gas has been well over spent in the truck loads of gravel just so she doesn't get stuck in the mud.....shoulda bought a Jeep!

Most drivers of Smart cars never heard of the Laws of Physics. I'll keep my XJ, my F150, and my life.

The funny thing about that is that the oval shapes on the sides that you see are roll cages that are designed off of the ones used in helicopters. Take a look at a Loach and then a Smart ForTwo. Most people think that they will crumple in a crash like a tin can, but they wont......however if a car doesn't crush at least a little, all the forces are transferred to the driver.

So I whole heartedly back you up on the people not understanding physics thing. It's not going to crush you to death, just send the shock of a 70mph crash into your internal structure (i.e. - the human)
