Anyone else notice Tesla's flying rear view mirror that nearly hit the dummy in the face? Maybe they forgot to apply the little alcohol wipe before gluing it on the windshield :).

If Tesla can bring this maintain this level of vehicle safety to its lower priced vehicles (gen iii vehicles: http://insideevs.com/tesla-gen-iii-to-eliminate-price-premiu...), then their dedication to quality, and not just economics, will be even more applaudable.

Tesla makes an impressive vehicle, but it is unfair to compare a ~$80K machine to a ~$30K one.

A fairer comparison would be to a BMW 5xx or Mercedes E class. Tesla may still fair better but not by as huge a margin.

Having said all that... wow, that is a surprisingly huge difference in results!

It also looks like, in an accident, the lights on the Tesla start to flash.

That's an Accord coupe, the B pillar is more thick than a 4-door version, wouldn't that mean the sedan would score even worse?

Okay, that's impressive. The Accord isn't a bad car per se, but its dummy is clearly having a much worse day.
