Below is a photo of a wreck in Jefferson Parish, LA (near New Orleans ) between two trucks and a Smart Car. Think Il pass on the Smart Car.

Sorry to burst your bubble Glenn...that's not a Smart car! Too many lug nuts on the wheel(Smart car has 3...the cart above has 5)!

It *Might* be a G6 or something similar...due to the aluminum wheel design

If you gotta go that's not a bad way, never knew what hit him/her.

Good eye Bruce!

No need for people to be afraid of Smart Cars. If you want one then buy one. If you want a Hummer then buy a Hummer. Freedom of choice!

Yeah, I want to die comfortably in my sleep like my grandfather did, not screaming in terror like his passengers did.

Wow, someone who gets it!

Unfortunately, some people have an irrational fear of Smart cars and Priuses (Prii?). What people choose to get from Point A to Point B is not my business.
