The value of new cars

[kurgen]

Just got home from work. Had three fatalities today in an old toyota carina. OK they weren't wearing seat belts and so were thrown out of the car! but the car was a right mess. The two kids in the back were taken to hoosy in the helicopter "fingers crossed for them" The focus that they hit, the guy was injured but it only took us 10 mins to cut him out. No intrusion into the footwell, airbags activated, seatbelt pretensioners went off. He prolly had a broken hip, ankle and a few ribs but he was alive. His wife walked away with cuts and bruises. Makes you think NCAP tests are worth there weight in gold eh?
