The way cars collapse and fall apart at crashes is absolutely amazing. Just over 30 days ago I was involved in a head on collision with a Nissan Titan full-size pickup truck WITH cargo in the bed, and walked away from an accident the EMT's, fire fighters, and police all told me it was almost impossible I did. The adjuster didn't believe me when I told him the state of the car, but when he did go out to check it out he called me and asked me if I was sure I was alright...
I was driving 20 Mph, turning left at a traffic light, the pickup truck was driving (according to the driver) 45 - 50 Mph, although the adjuster and off-duty police suggest he may have been driving faster.

One thing I will note though, my car is significantly cheaper than the Tesla... and fares extremely well in the NHTSA tests.
