This think is far more dangerous than a Smart Car. The new Ford Fiesta gets almost the same mileage as a Smart Car and the Ford has a 5-star safety rating.

Exactly. Someone was talking about the attack in India with the gunman. I think it was mumbai. Life is not that precious because you have over 1 billion people and many are starving and dying.
Sort of like Dems/Liberals plus fake Notre Dame catholics and the abortion money machine. Notre Dame gave a medal to the partial birth abortion muslim.

Does that car come with an orange wig, red nose, and a set of big floppy shoes?

So sad. There is nothing left of that car. With my skills I would much rather be on a motorcycle. I can/could execute some pretty drastic maneuvers when necessary to avoid a vehicle or pedestrian.
I guess when its your time tho, its your time, and when that time comes, aint nothin gonna save you.

It really isn’t a case of people being the worse source of pollution. It’s about control and money.
You can’t tax a volcano eruption. That would be a tax on Mother Nature, the biggest source of pollution. In their little minds that would be charging their God a prayer tax.
But we can guilt stupid people to give us money and therefore we can control them. Hence, global warming hoax, ozone layer, acid rain, the rain forest depletion, west nile virus, swine flu, etc.

Isnt it just as dangerous as a motorcycle?Arguably much more dangerous. With a motorcycle you have a better power-to-weight ratio, better maneuverability, require less lane space, and you can look around better (more traffic awareness)--given road conditions are not icy.
All that translates to being better able to assess potential threats and do something to avoid them if you are a skilled rider.

Parson Walker's wife laid very sick once, for a good while, and it seemed as if they warn's going to save her; but one morning he come in, and Smiley asked how she was, and he said she was considerable better thank the Lord for his inftnit mercy and coming on so smart that, with the blessing of Providence, she'd get well yet; and Smiley, before he thought, says, "Well, I'll risk two- and-a-half that she don't, any way."

Heck, the go kart I built 50 years ago as a kid was safer than that thing, it had a roll bar/cage.
It was probably faster also with 2 old McCulloch chainsaw engines on it.

Life is not that precious because you have over 1 billion people and many are starving and dying.So life is precious to us because we have only 300 million? I think everyone alive loves life, however exalted or degraded their condition, and is loath to give it up. My brain tells me this.
