Smart Car Wreck - GoFuckYourself.com

Tube Ace · 08-08-2009, 09:06 AM

Thinking of getting a smart car.........

Below is a photo of a wreck in Jefferson Parish, LA (near New Orleans ) between two trucks and a Smart Car.
Think I?ll pass on the Smart Car.

Is it supposed to be collapsible?

I was thinking it takes less room to park than my dresser does.

I don't care what planet your from, thats got to hurt!

Fletch XXX · 08-08-2009, 09:21 AM

thats the westbank expressway overpass, the hospital i was born in is a couple blocks from there ;)

question though, why put the parish name and not the city? Fire truck says 'harvey" dept.;)

Jarmusch · 08-08-2009, 09:25 AM

Not buying a Smart because of the unlikely chance of getting sandwiched between two trucks is real smart.

I just coped the text from a forwarded email. I honestly didn't realize it was Harvey until after I posted - I'm an East Banker.

L-Pink · 08-08-2009, 09:54 AM

I was surprised to read it only gets 35 mpg.

cool! I didn't know you were local.

Funny opening a thread like this not expecting to see some local accident lol

L-Pink · 08-08-2009, 09:59 AM

Should I even ask about what happened to the driver?

crockett · 08-08-2009, 10:01 AM

I'd say any car, smart or not would look the same in that situation.

I think he's the puddle under the car.

Tube Ace · 08-08-2009, 10:03 AM

As it turns out, the car may be a Ford Focus. My apology to the Smart Car folks. Please don't sue me.

Amazingly, the driver reportedly walked away unharmed.

pornguy · 08-08-2009, 10:15 AM

There was a video of a smart car being crashed at like 50 mph into a car and the driver walked away.

Stardust_ · 08-08-2009, 10:16 AM

What kind of a fag looks into buying a 'smart car' anyway?

SilentKnight · 08-08-2009, 10:19 AM

Failed thread.

Vendzilla · 08-08-2009, 10:54 AM

I think the go cart I had as a kid was bigger than a smart car

John-ACWM · 08-08-2009, 10:54 AM

Those beast would mess up most cars.Anyways,Smart had no chance.

I agree, this would be tragic for any vehical.

potter · 08-08-2009, 10:57 AM

Ah yes, because any normal car would surely only have a mere scratch after being smashed between two massive trucks.

Elli · 08-08-2009, 11:33 AM

This is a *true* smart car wreck:

This cannot be right. My Vibe GT gets 35-37mpg at 80mph highway speed..

I was told by a Jetta owner (also diesel like the smart car) that they get 60mpg.

Both much larger cars.

digitaldivas · 08-08-2009, 12:05 PM

holy shit, bet that was fatal

Raf1 · 08-08-2009, 12:06 PM

I don't think any other car would have looked much better in that situation...

kristin · 08-08-2009, 12:07 PM

Smart Cars aren't so smart, they only get about 42 mpg, just like a Corolla - and you can fit four in a Corolla.

This crash looks sick..

The "barrier" crashes similar to this (you've all seem them, front impact barrier tests) only simulate a car of equal size hitting it. In this case, an object of 0 velocity; and you'd probably lose your legs in that crash.

I was lead to believe early on that the smart cars were "safe" due to these tests, but they're not the whole truth. More recent tests put a Smart car up against a mid-size or SUV -- in those crashes you're getting seriously hurt or killed.

tigermtb · 08-08-2009, 12:10 PM

European Union (EU) testing rates the 999 cc Smart at 4.7 L/100 km (60 mpg-imp; 50 mpg-US) for the gasoline model and 3.4 L/100 km (83 mpg-imp; 69 mpg-US) for the diesel.[citation needed] The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rates the vehicle at 36 mpg-US (6.5 L/100 km; 43 mpg-imp) combined.[3]

Wiki.. so dunno if this is right. Interesting regardless.

Wonder what the ratings for the plug-in Prius will be when it comes out the end of this year.
GM's Volt is being beat to market (release in 2010).

Apparently the Smart car has been dumbed down for the US. According to edmunds.com the US version of the Smart gets 36 mpg. According to the Smart's own web site you can get a much smarter Smart in the UK that gets 70mpg.

Poindexterity · 08-09-2009, 12:10 AM

not buying a smart car cause it only gets 40mpg or so.
if it was 100 or some shit, then it'd be worth it.
but as it is...

Rangermoore · 08-09-2009, 12:19 AM

That"s why I drive a big Mercedes gas guzzler...Makes me feel safe with allot of car around me..
