"The Mk 1 Ford Focus received 4 out of 5 stars for occupant safety, and 2 out of 4 stars for pedestrian safety in its EuroNCAP tests (69% frontal, 83% side, 28% pedestrian).[4] In Australia, the 2002–2005 Ford Focus was assessed in the Used Car Safety Ratings 2006 as providing "average" protection for its occupants in the event of a crash."

My Cutlass has no crumple zones, no airbags, no stability control, an OPTIONAL shoulder belt...and I drove the thing every day for two years (March to November).  Safety ratings are the least of my concern when discussing cars...especially a cut and paste job from wikipedia...

What this thread has to do with Car Craft or its general populace...I have no idea.

Heck, one of my cars doesn't even have a roof  I think all 11 of that guy's posts have been wiki quotes.

Wow...no roof eh?  

But yeah I'm a bit confused...wiki isn't exactly a pay site...so can we consider this spam??  Certainly has nothing to do with the topics generally discussed here...but there is no profit for getting people to look at wikipedia...
