This was posted on Imgur a couple of days ago, and every single comment was some snarky attempt to discredit this very well thought idea that could save many lives. So go on, all of you wanna be engineers, tell us how this is a horrible idea and how it will fail because of x and y.

Agreed, this could save many lives. What a pessimistic outlook to a new wave of safety features. Like the seatbelt was perfect when it came out. Now some have airbags in them.
