    Volvo is supposed to be coming out with one of these around the year 2020. My question is, why is it taking so long?!?!?!

    I think we can all agree car accidents are bull sh!t, so why aren't more companies competing to make the first one the fastest? If this car were to come out in say, the next 2 years, how much do you think it should sell for?

    When you mean accident proof? Does that like cover almost any accident or what? (Sorry it is hard for me to imagine stuff that will come out in the future :p)
    60-70k though I would guess.

    yea pretty much, engineered so that the interior is protected in almost any collision.

    With all the infrared, optic fibre and satellite technology these days...a car that is crash proof should be easy enough to design.

    I saw one on Top Gear the other week. It watched for cars in front and braked, slowed according to the speed limit, stop signs etc..was pretty cool.

    Accident proof cars that can withstand any type of collision are hard to come. Instead, intelligent cars that would avoid collision are the ones to be expected soon :)
