[QUOTE="fabianyee, post: 497461, member: 6"] RIP to the deceased. Does the NCAP test for side impact with a tree???? I guess not... Most crash test are concentrated at the front where most collisions occur... As for side impact, mainly were tested with a wide concrete block or another car which has wider area and also crumple zone ... Against a tree???? with a small surface area and no crumple zone, the forces acted upon that particular point is HUGE.... Even a track car with roll cage oso can't guarantee u'll come out alright.... U're seated inches away from the door... Any side impact of great amount will cause serious injury.... In this case, death... [/QUOTE]
