The passenger cell remains solid though the crash dummies experience injuries. I often wonder how much better the automotive market would be if solid designs remained in circulation instead of these new-old mistakes re-entering the market every time.</text></comment>

I am not aware of any country that has gone straight from non-industrialized to safe industrialization.</text></comment>
