partial frontal impacts

i'd like to add:
"The new small overlap frontal test involves 25 percent of a vehicle’s front end striking a barrier straight ahead on the driver’s side, again at 40 m.p.h."

"The door was sheared off at the hinges on the Volkswagen CC, the first vehicle to be evaluated by the I.I.H.S. to completely lose its door, the authors noted. This raised the possibility that an occupant could be partly or completely ejected from that vehicle."

It's obvious that the results will be more drastic but this volkswagen is definately a shocker.
