Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 13y 6m 27d Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 26/10/11 03:10 AM Share Posted 26/10/11 03:10 AM This speed should be at least doubled I reckon, even 50k's would be better.I completely agree mate.. I don't know where they got 29km/h from but that to me isn't even indicative of a car losing control on a 60km/h bend in the wet. Allowing for decel due to angle you're right 50km/h would be better.Not to bag out ANCAP as the tests are in line with what are performed world wide. Understanding the speeds of the tests make you realise that the 5 star safety rating is a bit of a marketing scam.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
