Default Crash test results - MUST SEE

Guys!

This came across my desk today. I thought I should share
it with all of you as it concerns us all. Comments?

Crash Test Video

The last sentence in this quote bothers me the most:
"How far has crashworthiness progressed in 50 years? The Insurance Institute for Highway (IIHS) finds out, with the help of a 2009 Chevrolet Malibu and a '59 Chevy Bel Air. Now we wonder if any of the insurance companies that fund the IIHS will continue to write policies for classic cars."

Steve, great to see you back. Better late than never, but this one has been beaten to death, repeatedly, then whipped, flogged, stomped and smacked with a 2x4.
