There is no reason to build in all these safety devices. Just don't drive like an idiot. These cars are dangerous and one accepts the danger, like skydiving, scuba diving, etc. There is only so much safety you can build in. Beyond that is absurdity.

You also have these macho Cobra guys. I recall when I was wreck diving off NJ there was a diver who would go out with us from time to time. We called him 'macho diver' because he used to brag that he never came out of a wreck the same way he went in. Well one day he didn't come out at all! Three days later they pulled him out. Had a nice bag of bugs too (lobsters).

This is one reason our insurance premiums go up or are dropped altogether. You get these guys that want 600+ hp in their cars and then go out and roll themselves into a ball. They think its like having a Supra with a twin turbo. You also have the guys that watch too much of 'Gone in 60 seconds' and like to show off on the streets.

"A man's got to know his limitations!" You also have to know your Cobra and don't drive like an idiot.
