Modern cars are designed to basically self destruct to keep as many of the forces away from the occupants. That's a good thing. Who gives a fata if your car only has a dented bumper if you're cruising around in a neck brace for six months. I'd rather walk away uninjured and pay a deductible than have an unnecessary injury.
