I have seen a W210 car that had a front wheel come off at 80mph and go into oncoming traffic. The owner walked away after a 125+mph combined head-on. Your car is pretty damn safe even if the perch fails.
Your statement isn't logical. Think, how safe would it have been if they crossed the path of a big rig instead? I don't see anyone walking away from that, do you?
