Buy Now www.toysrus.com The Britax Advocate Click and Safe Car Seat introduces Side Impact Cushion Technology, the latest advancement in child safety, which protects both the child in the seat and adjacent passengers in the event of a side impact crash. Side Impact Cushion Technology reduces side impact crash energy by 50%, by diverting crash forces away from the child. In a side impact crash, the side impact cushions compress to absorb and distribute incoming crash forces while Britaxs True Side Impact Protection shields and contains the child. The Click & Safe snug harness indicator feature is an audible aide to help determine when the harness is secure by clicking when the harness straps are snug. The easy-turn knob quickly adjusts the headrest and harness height without having to uninstall the seat. A higher forward-facing weight capacity allows children to remain harnessed up to 65 pounds with a tangle-free, five-point harness to ensure a snug and secure fit. For a quick, simple and tight installation, premium push-button LATCH connectors are provided along with the patented Versa-Tether for energy management. Children ride in comfort with both rear- and forward-facing recline and a plush body pillow for positioning. The Britax Advocate fits children rear facing from five to 35 pounds and children forward facing from at least one year old and 20 pounds, up to 65 pounds. The Britax Advocate is made in the USA with US and global components.. + Informações

DANGER - PERIGO driving 140km / h lying on the motorcycle! ============== Um acidente é um evento indesejável e inesperado que causa danos pessoais, materias (danos ao patrimônio), danos financeiros e que ocorre de modo não intencional. Exemplos físicos incluem colisões e quedas indesejadas, lesões por tocar em algo afiado, quente, elétrico ou ingerir veneno. Exemplos não-físicos são revelar um segredo não intencionalmente, esquecer um compromisso, etc. Se os resultados dessa negligência eram previsíveis e não foram tomadas as precauções necessárias para evitá-la, a pessoa pode ser responsabilizada por eventuais consequências de tal negligência. Em um "acidente", ninguém pode realmente ser responsabilizado porque o acontecimento é imprevisível ou muito pouco provável, apesar de que o causador, mesmo involuntariamnete, pode ter que ressarsir o bem danificado. Muitas vezes os acidentes são Investigação para que possamos aprender a evitá-los no futuro. Isso é muitas vezes chamado análise das causas, mas geralmente não se aplica aos acidentes que não pode ser previsto com o mínimo de certeza. 50.425 pessoas foram mortas por acidentes (não incluindo acidentes de carro) nos Estados Unidos em 1995, uma taxa de 19 pessoas em 100.000 fonte: pt.wikipedia.org =========== Road traffic accidents generally fall into one of four common types: Lane departure crashes, which occur when a driver leaves the lane they are in and collide with another vehicle or a roadside object.

MPGomatic.com puts a 2011 Mazda2 to a 450+ mile test drive. [ Full Review: www.mpgomatic.com ] While the Mazda2 is one of the least powerful cars sold in America, it's a hoot to drive. The naturally aspirated DOHC 1.5-liter inline four cylinder engine produces a modest 100 horsepower (HP) and 98 foot-pounds of torque. We tested an automatic-equipped Mazda2 Touring model. EPA gas mileage estimates are 29 city / 35 highway miles per gallon (MPG) with a 5-speed manual and 27 city / 33 highway MPG with the automatic transmission. The Mazda2 provides advanced front air bags, front side-impact air bags and side-impact air curtains, along with Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) and Traction Control (TCS). Standard features include remote keyless entry, air conditioning, power windows, power door locks, and power mirrors. The Limited model has a Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $16435. The Limited model includes a trip computer, alloy wheels, halogen fog lamps, and a rear spoiler. A center armrest and rear bumper guard were the only options on our test car. MPGomatic produces car reviews videos with a unique focus on gas mileage, in-cabin technology, and driveability. Yep, we're the folks that shoot those 0-60 MPH tests. More MPGomatic ...

The passenger compartment remained stable in the frontal impact. Dummy readings indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of the driver and passenger but the steering column and ignition barrel were thought to present a risk to drivers of different sizes and to those sat in different positions. In the side impact tests, the car was tested without the optional thorax airbag which did not meet Euro NCAP's fitment requirements. Dummy readings of rib compression in the side barrier test showed that protection of the chest was marginal and that of other body regions was good. In the more severe side pole test, chest protection was weak. The seat and head restraint provided marginal protection against whiplash injuries in the event of a rear-end collision. In the frontal impact, the 3 year dummy, sat in a forward facing restraint, did not move forward excessively. However, on rebound, the head of the dummy glanced against the rear window and the score was penalised. In the side impact, the 18 month dummy was properly contained but the head of the 3 year dummy was slightly outside the side wing of the restraint. The passenger airbag can be disabled to allow a rearward facing child restraint to be used in that seating position. The system did not meet Euro NCAP's requirements but clear warnings are provided in the vehicle of the dangers of using a rearward facing restraint in that seat without first disabling the airbag.. + Informações

Driver-Passenger HIC 654-307 Chest Acceleration 46.5-37.2 3 Stars. The Micra scored 9.26 out of 16 in the offset crash test. The passenger compartment held its shape reasonably well. Protection from serious neck, chest and leg injury was marginal for the driver. The vehicle scored 12.92 out of 16 in the side impact crash test. There was a moderate risk of serious chest injury for the driver. Frontal Offset Crash Test Body region scores out of 4 points each: Head/neck 2.4 pts, chest 2.39 pts, upper legs 1.81 pts, lower legs 2.67 pts. The passenger compartment held its shape reasonably well in the offset crash test. The accelerator pedal moved rearwards by 81 mm. The brake pedal moved downwards 4mm. The steering wheel hub moved 3 mm rearward, 57mm downward and 22 mm sideways. The front ("A") pillar moved 43 mm rearwards. All doors remained closed during the crash. After the crash the drivers door could be opened with high manual effort. The airbag cushioned the head of the driver but contact was unstable, with the head rolling off the side and striking the door. Steering column and console components were a potential source of injury for the driver's knees. =A metal bracket near the glove box was a potential source of injury for the passenger's knees.. + Informações

This system senses when an accident is likely to happen and optimises occupant safety by priming the restraint system. In Euro NCAP's test, 'Pre-Safe' was not engaged so the results reflect the vehicle's performance using only its conventional restraint systems. The occupant compartment and footwell remained stable during the impact. The dummy results showed that the front seat occupants knees and femurs were well protected. Mercedes showed with the use of knee mapping that the driver knee airbag and passenger restraint system would provide similar protection to occupants of different sizes and to those sat in different seating positions. Side impact The car scored maximum points for its performance in the side impact and pole tests. Child occupant The label warning of the risks associated with using a child seat on the front passenger seat and the passenger airbag status information that was presented to users wanting to install a child restraint on the front passenger seat were insufficient.

Five Stars Adult occupant The passenger compartment of the Ranger remained stable in the frontal impact. Dummy readings in the tests indicated good protection of the knees and femurs of both the driver and front passenger. Ford showed that a similar level of protection would be provided for occupants of different sizes and those sat in different seating positions. For the passenger, all body regions were well protected. For the driver, protection of the chest was adequate and that of other body regions was good. Maximum points were scored in the side barrier test, with good protection of all body areas. In the more severe side pole test, chest protection was adequate and that of other body regions was good. The front seats and head restraints provided marginal protection against whiplash injuries in a rear-end impact. Child occupant Forward movement of the 3 year dummy, sat in a forward facing restraint, was not excessive. In the side impact, both dummies were properly contained in the protective shells of their restraints, minimsing the risk of dangerous head contacts. The passenger airbag can be disabled to allow a rearward facing restraint to be used in that seating position. Clear information is provided regarding the status of the airbag and the system was rewarded. Pedestrian The bumper provided good protection to pedestrians' legs. The front edge of the bonnet was more mixed, with good areas and some areas which gave poor protection to struck pedestrians. However .... + Informações

An in-depth review of the 2005 Maybach 62 with Chris Moran. Maybach was one of the world's most exquisite nameplates in the 1920s and '30s. The original company was founded by Karl Maybach ? the son of Wilhelm Maybach, who developed the first Mercedes. Some people were surprised when Maybachs returned in the form of two closely related, all-new ultraluxury sedans. Each posh sedan is filled with nearly every sort of comfort and convenience feature offered in a motorcar. Ostensibly a product of DaimlerChrysler, Mercedes-Benz's parent company, the modern-day Maybach is actually considered a make of its own. Maybachs come in two sizes: the regular Type 57 and the extended-length Type 62. Each model designation indicates the car's length in meters: 5.73 for the Type 57 and 6.17 for the Type 62. Special features include electronic braking and an Airmatic Dual Control air suspension. A rearview parking-assist camera is available in the 2005 model. Standard equipment now includes Robbe & Berking beverage flutes and a handcrafted Dunhill Collection umbrella. Standard Sirius Satellite Radio includes a lifetime subscription. Only one or two Maybachs per day are built at a state-of-the-art facility in Germany. Mercedes-Benz dealers must sign separate agreements to sell them. Exterior According to the manufacturer, Maybach styling balances classic and avant-garde features. The doors, hood and fenders are made of aluminum. Maybach says a primary goal was to deliver an "entirely new .... + Informações

On the transmission side the SKYACTIV-Drive is both smooth and efficient; offering an increase in fuel economy by 7% on average. On the outside the 2013 Mazda CX-5 continues the bold design direction Mazda has been following the past few years. Mazda calls this KODO or soul of motion. And you can see this style is present on the way the lines of the CX-5 curve and have movement.
