Imagine my surprise waking up this morning to a crash test video involving a `59 Chevy...
French website Koreus.com today posted a video shot by the US Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, with the goal of showing how far vehicle safety has come in 50 years. My initial reaction was that a big steel boat like a `59 Chevy would be the safe bet, but then I had a nagging suspicion that they wouldn't be shooting a video if there weren't advancements. Once I got past the sickening site of a two-tone Bel-Air sedan being obliterated before my eyes, I was stunned with the results. Game point to the 2009 Malibu.
Check out the embedded video below. If you don't see it, the video link is at the bottom of this page!
