Skeeve Posted December 18, 2006 Posted December 18, 2006 Looks like another case of "left turning BDC violates rider's right-of-way..." I can hardly wait until all the cages are on auto-pilot w/ radar-threat avoidance so the computer will keep the dang thing immobile when there's a rapidly approaching motorcycle...
pete roper Posted December 19, 2006 Posted December 19, 2006 As far as I can make out they're useless anyway, never mind in an impact like this. Jude collected a huge 'Roo this morning and wrote off the Toyota. The rad and air-con evaporator have been pushed right into the block and the airbag didn't deploy! So much for this wonderful *safety* technology Pete
