I have been saying this for years: NO MORE BLOOD FOR OIL!!! (I'm a retired automotive engineer) CAFE (Corporate Automotive Fuel Economy) standards KILL more American citizens every year than have died in the entire Iraq war. Further increases in CAFE will kill even more. Federally mandated fuel economy standards are a foolish way to conserve oil.

I routinely see incredibly light weight autos (F1, CART) run into things at up to 200 MPH without damage to the driver.
Cars can be made light and strong. You just need to work at it.
