    My point wasn't that you'd survive in either car, just that hitting a tiny car can be as bad as hitting an SUV, especially if the tiny car is going a lot faster than you are.

    Yeah that is a good point. We all need to be smart/safe drivers whether driving our old wagons or our newer cars.

    So your car got its teeth knocked out. No big deal. Grills only munch insects, anyhow. Be thankful the protruding chin was left intact

    a1awind: It's good it didn't jump up and hit the windshield. Although the picture below is of a horse that went through a windshield, This is the sort of thing I'm talking about:
