The Most Unsafe Car of All Time?

[Genichiro]

Slide show here

I would say that yes, if this is not the most dangerous care of all time, it certainly ranks in the top ten. Just how on earth could anyone even seriously give thought to driving around in something like this? Does this guy even care about his own safety? I know with the economy as it is times are tough, but there has to be a more affordable alternative to driving around in this deathtrap on wheels. Then again, maybe the guy was doing that to show off just how dangerous a person can make a car to drive, and still have it be functional. If that's the case, good work, sir, mission accomplished.

Oh goodness; that thing is death on wheels! Why would someone even try to drive that!?

[Zen]

Well, the removal of the original gas tank actually removes the rear-end collision fire hazard problem... However, replacing it with a plastic gas can balanced on a tire where the passenger seat should be? That doesn't seem like a good idea! I wonder if he was smoking a cigarette too?

[Genichiro]

You know, I wouldn't be surprised at all if the guy was smoking. You'd have to be smoking something to think that was a good idea!!

[Cirno]

It would have been hilarious if the driver was smoking a cigar. (At least I think it would have been.)

[Zen]

A big ol' stogey would complete the picture nicely, I agree! LOL!

[Genichiro]

If I had the skills, I would photoshop someone into one of the pictures driving the car while smoking. Imagine Cheech and Chong driving that car; that's what I'm thinking of.

[Cirno]

I could see Cheech and Chong driving a car like that... while getting high.

[Genichiro]

They would have to be getting high; it wouldn't make sense otherwise.

[Cirno]

If they light up too close to the "gas tank," then they really would be "up in smoke."

[Genichiro]

Oh ho, I see what you did there.
