European pedestrian crash safety guidelines are dictating tall, square, blunt fronts on cars. No longer will you see shapes like MR2's for front ends.

Why don't we make the pedestrians either watch where they're going or dress up in ugly puffy suits instead of ruining our cars?

How am I supposed to get points if the pedestrians just bounce off the car?

I don't understand this regulation at all. When a car hits someone low they would fall onto the car. It it hits them in the hip they stay on the car. Further I thought we wanted cars with better mileage.

Hold on I take this all back.....this is from the eu and I was using logic. My bad.

You missed the phase where the Koreans just actively copied things, so now you think the things they copied, are the things they're making?

This makes about as much sense as the Philosoraptor.....

some brave car company should make a totally awesome car that everyone wants that doesn't conform to all those silly EU standards and use a pic of Calvin urinating on the EU as the badge for the car..
