		<description>The SmartCar is smart about safety too. See &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5217861/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;the &quot;But is it safe?&quot; section of this MSNBC article&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/06/12/video-mercedes-s-class-vs-smart/&quot;&gt;this video of a crash test from Auto Motor und Sport&lt;/a&gt;. The SmartCar has a complete reinforced stainless steel frame that acts like a &quot;walnut shell&quot; to protect the meaty nuts inside. And it&#039;s not new; the SmartCar has been in production and use in Europe for a decade.</description>

		<description>I really hope this catches on, but how would it be on the highway weaving in and out of the big rigs and SUVs?</description>
