They're interesting, these tests, and I suppose they help to rate one car against another. But it has to be said, no two accidents are alike, and someone could walk away from one which could do serious damage to the next person.

Case in point, I saw a Vauxhall Corsa torn open in an accident this morning. I don't hold out much hope that the occupants walked away from it, and all for a banal error of judgement during a passing manouvre at no more than 40mph. Forty head on would have been nasty, but forty while spinning into a tree is something else entirely.
