Does the car going faster get more damage?
Does the car going faster get more damage? The crash force at 70 mph opposed to 25 mph is nine times as high. Even a relatively small increase in speed of five mph can increase the force of the collision enough to result in serious physical injuries and extensive property damages since force exponentially increases as speed increases.
Can you survive a 90 mph crash?
If you drive any car short of a race car with head restraint devices and other safety innovations into a wall at 90 mph you're probably going to die. In fact, likely the only way to survive hitting something head on at 90 mph is to be driving a big car at 45 and hit something like a smart car at 45.
