Cars Under Trucks and SUVs
They have already started to seriously consider how to solve the problem when high SUVs and trucks collide with regular cars. What usually happens is what you see in the picture, which obviously is a lot more dangerous and fatal. The car slides under the truck and usually kills the front passengers. Nine major automakers agreed last Tuesday to begin installing beams that meet a new strength test by September 2009. Ford and DaimlerChrysler didn’t agree to redesign and test the high safety beams. We don’t know anything final yet, but let’s hope all understand the risk.
