G-Wiz goes accordion-style in Euro-NCAP: Ecofreaks do suicide in loved pilchardbox

[Mäusekino]

indian micro-electric-"car" G-Wiz recently gotten crash-tested with Euro-NCAP rules and, er, there wasn't much left of it after the bang.

Quote of the test agency TRL:
The passenger compartment sustained significant intrusion with the driver's side A-pillar deforming rearwards by approximately 397mm at the waist beam level. At the sill level the A-pillar deformed rearwards by approximately 299mm. Intrusion of this magnitude has the potential to cause serious or life-threatening injuries to the vehicle occupants as structures such as the steering column and pedals intrude into the compartment...

bad news for kristin scott thomas - & Jeremy Clarson somehow also - cause she's one of the completely eco-freaked-out celebs, who owns one (mostly cause in her mind even the Smart, the Lupo 3L or the Prius are from hell). if she would have a highspeed-crash with it - highspeed in this case means 40mph, the g-wiz won't get much faster - she would be, well, dead. or if not dead, then extremely less of her would remain and do "living" and it would be garbles.
bad news for clarkson cause he fancys her very much and he would have to "blemish" or even kill his favourite donkey, named "kristin scott donkey" to match the condition of the original.

well, it seams the deadly annoying environmentalists finally get what they deserve. it's not for no reason that the words 'environmentalist', 'fundamentalist' and 'terrorist' got the same ending.

What is wrong with caring about the environment?

nothing generally, but that way, just stupid

Luckily in india, anywhere you are usually driving with a car is so overpopulated you won't be going over 10mph

If you're even moving...

Another reason to forget about hybrids...

[Waugh-terfall]

Ah so what, you'd be ok in a crash, you sense a crash is inevitable, open the door and step out before impact

Nothing really. But i think he is also a bit fed up with all the eco-fuzz... If you think about most things, they aren't even very eco at all.. It's getting a bit annoying for me atleast

Right. All attempts at creating something that doesn't use fossil fuel will results in hundreds of high speed car deaths. Point noted.

Um- "ecology" study of an organism(can be human) and it's relationship to it's enviroment

So, "if you think about most things", what are the most things that are not relevant ?

Think about hybrids, hydrogen cars and so on... "Eco" has become an synonym to "green" and "environment friendly" over here, so that's why I worded it as such. All a load of hyped BS anyway

[Mäusekino]

elctric cars & hybrids are not that eco or green or whatever you wanna call it as always said & popularized. the NiMh-Batteries (Nickel Metal Hydride) used in most of them are causing much polution in the area around the production-factories. it takes years for a prius to be more eco than an merc s350 and the recycling or disposal of the old batteries isn't even added into that calculation.

and you're right, i am motherf***ing damn sh**f***ing hell fed up with all that eco-fuzz, it's the same status of being fed up with that a*sf***ed d***sucking nazi fa*s
