Well steel does not necessarily mean safety either though.
This girl I knew got in an accident once in front of my parents store.
She was late for work and was in a hurry and neglected to see the big
pickup coming down the road before making her left turn.
It T-Boned her passenger side and pushed the door in far enough to
actually hit her right arm. Her car was a brand new ford mustang, which
had some pretty decent doors and the truck wasn't moving at more than
your average 40-50mph on that road.
Had it impacted her drivers side, or had a passenger been in the car,
either her or the passenger would likely not be alive.
Steel? Safe? No.
Safe"r"? Maybe.
People are far more vulnerable than they think they are in their cages,
though most would never believe it.
