Default Re: ANCAP is a waste of time

I drive a Smart car to work every day, I get "aren't you scared you will be hit by a truck", I just reply with, "I'm sure it would not matter what I drive if I was hit by a truck".

Safety ratings are for people who need that fake security blanket to feel better about their choice of car.

Its not the car that is safe, its the driver, people still die in "safe cars".

Ancap ratings are a unreal world rating, car tested for a perfect side impact at 60kph, well what if I accidently pull out in a 110 zone, what if the other driver was doing 130, what if the other driver is in a truck, side rollover test at 60, what if I hit a culvert and end for end my car at 90, Ancap can not simulate real world accidents so it is pretty much just worthless results, the chance that you have a accident and it goes down exactly as it has been tested?, you are playing Lotto.
