Re: eg crash testes
It's no mystery that I'm going to get fucked if I get in an accident in my hatch. That's a given.
That's why I drive so defensively, and why I installed a loud *** horn.
Other than that there's not much you can do.

us spec hondas have a beam in the doors, Euro specs dont, US spec have a bumper support under the bumper, euro spec don't. US spec has air bags, some EU spec only have a driver side one or none. not saying a civic is safe, I am just saying they arent that unsafe.

Re: eg crash testes
Iv seen crashes where a 90 civic hatch got hit from behind at 50 from a f150 and it punted the civic into the intersection. One of the cars going the oppisite way carshed into a poll to miss the civic.
Civic=fucked but driver was fine
F150=fixable driver was fine
rodeo hit the poll=fucked with driver had major injures.

Re: eg crash testes
Heres what happens to a nissan altima, going 15 mph and running into the back of a Ford F350.
05-31-06: Tanked the *** end of a brand new Ford F-350. The truck was on its way from one dealership to another. The only damage to his truck was a scuff on the bumper, and his hitch was pushed in a lil bit. The altima didnt fare too well...
