Crash Test Dummy




	Human? observes:

	>>>Drive a Sherman Tank?<<<

	Good choice if you have one laying around.

	>>>How about avoiding the collision<<<

	Even better choice, if you have a choice.

	BTW, sounds like what, you escaped a roll in an Audi @ 80 with 
only sore thumbs and collerbone?  Guarantee you it had more to do with 
dumb luck than engineering--even though Audi's are well engineered.  
*Nobody* [short of race design] manufactures a street vehicle to 
withstand crash forces involved in an off-road 80mph roll.  Good solid 
design prin. will help, but ask a manufacturer to build the vehicle to 
w/stand those forces and the new A8 price will look like pocket change in 
comparison.
