The manager’s wife ran a pedestrian in Italy. More important than anyone was driving, the question is why the SUV has such high hoods.
En As a result of a fatal transportation on the Mediterranean island of Sardinia, a feeling causes a feeling for several days – also in the German media. The young woman was shot down at the place of rest on the island belonging to Italy. For a tabloid press, this is a holiday. Because the wife of Boss Luftans was driving a car. This is one, it seems, enough for reporting.
The fact that the victim was the daughter of a local trade union, who worked as a nanny in a noble place, gives everyone a cool struggle – but usually this remains a marginal aspect. And this turns to the actual explosiveness of this accident: it shows in a special way the consequences of a dramatic imbalance in road traffic.
Because the accident car was BMW X5 – one of these muscular vehicles that promise convenience and safety under the keyword SUV – but the danger to everyone else.
The study has just shown that the height of the hood of cars sold in Europe increased by 10 percent from 77 to 84 centimeters over ten years. With fatal consequences. Drivers: Inside, an overview of what is facing them loses. Or lies after the fall. With an expert: inside, cars with very high hoods are considered calling dead angles.
BMW praises the front of the character –
BMW itself praises a wide front section, which gives a character X5 due to a striking double area. Like many manufacturers, BMW is silent about the height of the hood. According to TAZ, this should be 90 centimeters, significantly higher than the reduction.
You don’t even need a racer: on a wheel. The driver in Sardinia probably was simply slowly approaching the crossing of Zebra in the zone of pace 30 when she missed her victim.
In any case, investigators who reporting the Italian media are convinced that a 24-year-old football player will still live if a low car shot down him. The front height limit for these street armor is expired.
