Well, in the 60s you could get an old car that had little damage but folks died in. Today, the car is totaled and no one had a scratch..If 60's chevys werent designed to crush, what happens to them and the driver in a collision?
In old car that are not made to "crush" when they come into a collision the car will be in pretty well intact because the cars are made very strong. Although because the car doesn't crush the impulse is much greater causing the force from the impact to hit the driver much harder that if the car would have "crushed". The driver in the old car would have greater injuries but less damage, and the drive of the crushable car would be less harmed but the car will be heavily damaged.
