两条基本结论都错了

To summarize the results for these vehicles with two points:
1) There is no evidence that the heavier vehicles are safer (in fact, the heaver BMW 5-Series, and Mercedes C and E-Class perform the worst in side impact)
2) Safety should not be a major reason for choosing to buy (or not buy) any of these vehicles. The crash results for all of these vehicles are quite similar.

==================================================================

我不得不说，这两点都错了！

第一，原文说：没有证据表明较重的车更安全。

可是它引用的碰撞试验，正面偏撞，里面有一句说明："Front Offset" test represent a head-on collision with another vehicle of the same mass,注意是SAME MASS。这是解读撞墙试验里最最重要的条件了！我不认为Yaris的2379磅和BMW5的3558磅是同等质量，后者多出50%。

正面车车对撞，物理定律不可违。


第二，原文说：安全性不应是选购这些车的主要(major)考量。

走极端了吧？安全性连“主要”都算不上了?! 我认为，选购任何车，安全性都应该是第一考量。不要我再多说了吧？
