Princess Diana died of this injury, and the amount of people who die in car accidents in the UK is pretty low anyway, I think its a good way of showing that its not the impact that kills you (well it is but you know what I mean)
Did you see the Top Gear episode or was it 5th gear where they drove a Smart car into a brick wall, they explained that the car was able to withstand an impact far greater than a human body can cope with, and that it was a very safe little car :)

Actually, I believe that the conclusion from that "test" was that the occupants of the Smart car would have had all the energy from the accident transferred to them and that they would be badly injured.
Interesting. They were one of the first SCPs to test hypothecation of fines.
Not my fault they don't have a clue about Royal Mail postage costs, the word 'mainland' in that thread was superfluous.
