wouldn't my car be safer to drive today than it was 53 years ago? (for me)
My thinking is this:
53 years ago these cars were tanks made to survive small nuclear explosions and being driven over a cliff with only minor scrapes...for the car...not so much the driver. No crumple zones or airbags or shoulder harnesses...seats that fold forward on their own, BIG metal stabby switches on the dash...everything that could possibly kill you is there. Anything you hit is going to be just as sturdy...
statistically speaking...
