The car industry has "The Smart fortwo" car. A little vehicle that has the highest rating for "good in front-end and side-impact testing" by the Insusrance Institute for Highway Safety. It gets 33 miles per gallon in the city and 41 mpg on the highway. It weights 1,800 pound and has a steel safety cage and four standard air bags, including two in front and two on the sides to protect the head and abdomen. The article I got this from is entitled "Smart fortwo is small, but ranks high in safety" by Ken Thomas Associated Press, dated 5/14/08 and found a similar article with same information.
