For sure, and I definitely wasn't attacking you or anybody, it's just a topic I'm passionate about. Back in '09 I was driving my tC straight through an intersection and an old SUV coming the other direction tried to turn left in front of me because he didn't see me. No time for me to stop so I tried to maneuver in front of him, and he tried to accelerate out of my way, and wham bam you have a 45mph frontal offset collision like the one in the video I linked.
If you've not been in one before, it sucks pretty bad (concussion + potential PTSD + totaled car) and I kid you not, my last thought before impact was, "I'm glad this car has good safety ratings."
