So, IMO, after crushing one doing 45km/h, don't get one.  I'll kill you by running over you.  Not the side of front impact testing they do, but by literally running over the top of this little POS.  See you in court.

Don't tell the wife, she doesn't know.

As somebody who drives a car that's roughly the same size as a smart the 1st thing you learn is that getting in the way of a bigger car is a big NO NO so whatever that dumbass gets he deserves.

LOL K OS, :lol:

I learned a long time ago that driving a small car means you avoid all larger cars, more so if they are made by GM, and driven by old ladys. :blink:

I've learned from driving a motorcycle to avoid EVERYTHING!!!!!!!

Motorcycle operation gives you super sensitivity from everything from:shade to leaves to type of snow and there are many kinds.
