Ouch!!! But I don't think many cars would come off any better in that situation.

Ahh... excellent observation there Velly, the smarts are surprisingly safe cars. And as for the poor thing sandwiched between two 15 tonne trucks, nothing could have survived that :(

Not really. Typical 5th Gear crap. Comparing cars of different ages. Any newer car with better safety features is going to come of better when smashed into an old one.
