Sad day there. But like Matador said, we don't know the whole situation. If you look at the video, the car looks like it did all it could to protect the driver. In front of the A-pillar it looks pretty-much vaporized, meaning it took all the energy that it could. But the passenger compartment is intact, meaning it didn't collapse into the driver. Don't know if the fabric in there were the airbags after deployment or sheets for...

Like I said before though, no car is death-proof, but CF can make them more death-resistant.

It's a somber reminder to us of the risks we all take just getting behind the wheel.
