Pedestrian collision, driver dies


What would you think if you heard of a person being killed (doa) driving a smart car who collided with a pedestrian, but the pedestrian suffered numerous injuries, but none life threatening?

weird.

I simply won’t pilot a vehicle that weighs less than 4,500 pounds.

I’m not a proud man but even I have standards!

I wish everyone lived that way.

That's Amishist.

THAT YOU HATE SMART CARS?🫤

I'd think you were on a mission to justify the use of ever bigger vehicles as some sort of safety "arms race "

I'd want to know the full story.

Smart Car has a 4-star crash safety rating from EURO NCAP, so if all they hit is a pedestrian then how did the driver die?

reply

The pedestrian was big, like well over 300 lbs. From what tid bits of info I heard, there was lots of damage to the car, like the pedestrians body went through the windshield.
