Can anyone comment on which was the bette result? I'd think the one that crumpled up more is better. Despite looking bad, it absorbs a lot of force in crumpling. The one which did not crumple transfers that energy to the driver's neck.

Pretty much impossible to tell from pictures/video. It's all about the deceleration of certain body parts. Head/ chest legs ect. All you could tell is whether the occupant structure is penetrated.

The crash/damage insurance estimate to another car is way higher on the 850 than my S60.

It's pretty evident that people on SS can often be idiots, but I thought this was worth sharing as I came across it this afternoon. This makes me happy that I didn't end up getting a different car back in January.

That hit was not 65 mph. No fucking way..

It was probably more like ~25-30.

People always trump up accident speeds.

Volvo saved his life? Apparently Chevy Tahoe saved the other guys life..

Dude works at a dealership and has a small fridge near his toolbox. Dr.Pepper kept disappearing from his fridge and someone kept eating his cashews while he was away from the tool box. Guy sets up a motion cam and some funny shit ensues :lol:

That thread is too funny - I just spent far too long reading nearly all of that thread - it gets really good towards the end!!
