The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety conducted a unique crash test to demonstrate the advances in motor vehicle safety over the last 50 years. In this test, a 2009 Chevrolet Malibu and a 1959 Chevrolet Bel Air are both going 40 mph and the vehicles collide offset, driver side to driver side. This is the same crash configuration represented by the Institute's 40 mph frontal offset barrier test, which is used to rate the frontal crash performance of new cars.
For information comparing the safety performance of new vehicles, go to the Institute's website at www.iihs.org/ratings/default.aspx.

Well I would have to agree. I mean after all he went to my videos saying that there was no government regulation and now hes saying he said stronger government regulations. Regardless he doesnt comprehend they had very strict government regulation its just the regulations wasnt updated. He doesnt comprehend that he is still wrong. Just like with this he cant get it out of his head that no two crashes are alike. Thats why I am resorting to deleting his childish rants on my videos.
I dont know! Something just doesn't seem right. I have a 1955 ford fairlane, and Thats Pure American Metal. I just cant see how a fiberglass, plastic CHEVY could do that to one of our cars. hmmmm.
From 58 to 64 these Chevy's, and a lot of GM cars had X frames. Most cars then, Like your 55 Ford and My 57 Plymouth (sorry I just had to throw that in lol!) had two big frame rails from front to back, the Chevy's joined in the middle. Fine if you hit something head on, But gives a non X frame car WAY more leverage in an offset crash like this. Not to say new cars aren't more safe, But this car probable would have done just as bad against any year car without an X frame.
myphonyaccount really has no idea what he is talking about he thinks he knows all about cars that are 30+ years old I mean how can you know he has no proof no education no experience I've been in an old car crash with a new one and came out just fine but he says that's a lie that's full of shit myphonyaccount you have no ida what you are talking about do you you are just a smart arse little fuck head who thinks he is all high and mighty well your a loser you just hate everything old don't you!!!
