This is somewhat reminiscent of what i tell many of my customers who are 
opting between an A6 or an SUV.  When asked to compare the safety, i say 
flat out that both are safe (they are).  the difference, i say, is that, 
in my opinion i would rather be in an A6.  I know i will survive the 
crash, and i know that the other person, the person i hit, will most 
likely survive as well.  I would prefer to be hurt myself than to find 
that my vehicle killed someone simply because it didnt have the correct 
engineering for safety. 

I know i didnt explain it very well, but im tired and its late.  I think 
you all get my point...

The funny thing is that i have now converted i think 5 people from 
getting into an SUV and instead into an A6 Avant using this analogy, 
along with several other benefits to owning an Audi.  People arent as 
dumb as they seem, they just need all the information....
