And you have just demonstrated that you can take a quote out of context, as well as miss the point I was making… The point I was making was that a vehicle flipping is not all that dangerous, particularly if the occupants remain strapped in (seat belted to begin with). The biggest problem is when the passenger compartment is intruded upon in the crash. The only microcar that I would consider driving is the Mercedes Smartcar because the passenger compartment remained intact after the collision.

Here’s a link from autoblog. They have pictures. Here’s the picture of the Smart after the crash. If you noticed the knee part, although the a-pillar is still intact, your knee probably would be busted and the dash got way too close to the face. Here’s the picture of the Fit. I think you’ll be better off in a Fit than a Smart, considering how the dash is still a good distant away from the face. However, neither look very good.
