   Damn!
   That stood up well, being rear ended at that speed by a SUV! I wonder how the other car looked?

   Do you think the poster really meant he was shunted 1/8th of a mile.? A few bits of that don't add up.

   Intresting seat belt routing - plus relaxed driving position.
   
   Impressive that the rear doors opened - helped by the fact it was a square on shut?
