Hey guys, how's it going? My name is Neil and I love anything were I get to smash, crash, explode or destroy stuff. I love playing automotive games such as BEAMNG Drive, Next Car Game Wreckfest, Burnout, Need for Speed, and many more. I try my best to upload at least once a day, sometimes two. I hope you find something here you enjoy, and I thank you for checking me out! Peace!

Those old 1950's cars didn't have a collapsing steering shaft. On a hard frontal impact the steering shaft would launch out of the dash into the driver's face. They named it "the harpoon" after they changed the design.

[krubzbubz]

No airbag, no seatbelt.
Neilogical: Dead.
No airbag, but with a seatbelt.
Neilogical: Dead.
Airbag and a seatbelt.
Neilogical: 5/5 would drive again.

[HWFG]

90% of those crashes would've resulted in death, the other 10%? Paralysed, limbs amputated, life changing injuries.

60 into a wall, is never a good ending.

[beanie]

Sir, what’s the damage report?

*DEATH*

Sir, logical answer please.

*points to car which is a pancake in a wall*

Oh, I see now.

[codymoncrief]

Many old steering wheels are designed to fold over when a body hits them, likewise the steering colum itself collapses at a calibrated force to act as a bit of cushioning too.

[jblbasstester]

Any crash at 60mph will likely result in death, as the body isn't able to withstand such forces.
You also have to keep the legroom in mind.

A general rule is that every time the A-Pillar is pushed back, either the dashboard or legroom is compromised.

[xanderfolfsky]

Should use crash test dummies with and without seatbelts in another video. That way you can say for sure if they are killed or just hurt.

[gamingspider-man]

Test 7: leg injuries
Test 8: legs possibly shattered
Test 9: passed👍
Test 10: passed👍
Test 11: passed👍

hey neil, my name is james. been watching a long time. i've always hoped someone could do a mod where there's a way to determine if the driver of a vehicle would servive a accident in this game. if you know any modders or anyone who could create anything like that, I think it would be a huge change for this game. cause instead of guessing if they survive like most of us do, we would have a better guess due to the dummy, stig or mod of them. let me know what you think.

[murilopirrialves]

You could have used the year filter on the right side of the car selector menu !!!!

Seatbelts were mandated in the US, according to Title 49 of the United States Code, Chapter 301, Motor Vehicle Safety Standard, on January 1, 1968.

[FluffyUnicornAsian]

I think it was starting in the early 90s, with increasing safety regulations for cars around the world tightening, many auto manufacturers started designing around the passenger/cabin safety cage idea. And to this day, cars are structurally designed around keeping the cabin as intact as possible to increase the safety for passengers in the event of a serious crash, rollover, etc.

[ddylla]

Older cars did not absorb/deflect energy created by crash away from the driver. While the vehicle may appear to have less damage visually, the likelihood of injuries are significantly higher due to design.

[AlfredHawthornBennyHill]

The Oldsmobile Regency had that particular body style from 1980-84 and a similar body style from 1977-79.

[MBG]

Should've done them with the dummies.

Also the IIHS, NHTSA, and other governmental agencies does the crash testing at 40 mi/h.

[keeponwishin]

No matter how good of a car you’re in, it’d be pretty hard to survive a 60mph head-long crash into a solid wall. Not only speaking about the effects on the vehicle, a person’s internal organs are colliding with the chest and abdominal wall and cause massive internal injuries. Good part about it most people won’t hit a wall that fast. Most folks will try to brake before impact.

[Nathan-bgbu]

The angle of the crash also matters as it may or may not concentrate the force onto a smaller portion of the car.

[randomthingswithrandarawan]

Just use the g force meter and you decide on dead vs alive

[angrydalek]

Nobody is ever ”ok” after an accident.
