Car Gone to smart Valhalla, But It Did It's Job!

6 posts in this topic

Our poor smart car went to smart Valhalla on 4/6. Three quarter right front hit by a Chevy pickup going app 60 MPH.

Pictures on my PhotoBucket page http://s173.photobuc...011 smart Crash

My passenger has cracked ribs and a "slight" lung puncture, I have a cracked sternum and we both have multiple bruises and contusions.

ALL of our injuries caused by seat belts and air bags! No intrusion into the passenger compartment. Looking closely at the front structure, it collapsed right up to the support "horn" on the safety cell, no damage to the cell at that point. There was a slight kink in the right front "A" pillar. The drivers door opened and shut perfectly. The car is a write-off, but it did the job and protected us!

Bought a new, unsold 2013 smart Cityflame Edition this week. In dealer stock since 6/2013 with 51 miles on it.

Good grief that was a hard hit! I'm glad you're both OK.

All I know is that the guy in the pickup ended up in the same hospital as I did, but I don't know the extent of his injuries.
