Can an ideal car break its A-pillar when hitting a tree?

First Example

I was shocked when I saw this picture.

What kind of sorcery is it to break the A-pillar by hitting a tree? And what is this automatic system taking over?

I think traditional fuel cars are still better. Is there something wrong with the design philosophy of current electric cars? Does the car control the person, or does the person control the car?

If the starting point is different, the overall design approach will go astray. People-oriented is truly difficult to implement in any organization's setup.

Second Example

Guangdong Qingyuan L7 Traffic Accident - December 21, 2023

Three seconds before the collision, the speed reached 178 km/h. The driver applied the brakes and eventually rear-ended a truck ahead at 96 km/h. I don't have any particular feelings about this brand, but it's really tragic—the owner didn't survive.

Conclusion

  1. There is no privacy inside the car; all data can be synced to the manufacturer's backend database.
  2. The body structure is fragile.
  3. Vehicle safety is not the top design priority.
