Mercedes Benz are innovators when it comes to safety. In this video the engine is shut-off automatically, the hazards are automatically turned on, and the body remains rigid: YouTube - mercedes accident

The Smart Car (Mercedes) in this video is put to the test. I'm certain Mercedes put a bit of thought into the safety of the R Class when designing it: YouTube - smart car crash

Amazing isn't it...What do you think?
