Nice examples of modern applied science and engineering safety advances. Unfortunately, some old myths will never die regardless of any evidence to the contrary.

It certainly made me think, thanks for that.

I wonder if the Volvo was starting to suffer from rust damage anywhere......it was so pushed in......unbelievable!!
