"This car turned in very poor results in this aspect of the test, and it compared badly with other Hondas of newer design tested recently. The CR-V scored three stars. Honda says the S2000 predates its decision to introduce a range of pedestrian protection measures at the design stage. The company intends to incorporate improved pedestrian protection measures into all future designs."

READ: European bureaucrats on cushy salaries with nothing better to do with their time than plat their ing ar*e hair have decided to enforce the adoption of Focus/Civic/Astra/Corolla/A Class/CR-V styling to mitigate negligible pedestrian casualty figures at the expense of glorious sports car design.

the ing lot of those pesky lefty meddling to**ers

Protection for pedestrians was proved by tests to be very poor
