Accident commercial.

Watch.

Discuss.




To me.. seems like the majority of avoidance skill would depend greatly on the driver. I've gotten of of some seriously bad situations in just a Civic. h:

I dunno how they can say it is better at accident avoidance from the commercial it looks like the Camry just pulled over to the side of the road without any damage....so where is the accident?

That too.. if you go into the site.. and watch the test results.. it explains a little bit more. It compares it against an Accord V6, as well

mitsubishi resale value sucks, and id rather drive a maxima, nissans handle better typically from the factory than most comparable cars, and are more fun to drive than the typical accord or civic, i like my civic but man thing doesnt feel as confident as my altima.

it's kind of hard to believe the camry could outperform the accord in these tests...

Reaction time has a lot to do with accident avoidance. Also you need to focus on the driving itself, distractions cause accidents no matter how good you are at multitasking.
