Hunting for money here.
Sorry but I feel sorry for those that lost their lives because of a drunk driver.
Like a plastic shield would have prevented him from not driving drunk and not ramming the rear end of their limo and they wouldn't of sustanined any injuries. i don't buy it.

Well, lets say it was someone who fell asleep at the wheel or had a sudden heart attack or someone who was on their cell phone and not paying attention to the road. Would having these plastic shields have prevented the flames and prevented certain death?
I love Ford's explanation why they're installed in cop cars, and I quote "civilian drivers do not need them because they do not use their cars like police officers, who often stop alongside high-speed expressways, exposed to onrushing traffic."
Guess stuff like stopping on highways is only limited to cops, emergency vehicles and scooba. :lol:
But seriously, don't you think that Ford could have prevented these deaths if they had implemented the same safety technology in their passenger cars and those in the cop cars?
