Im not so sure about luck. Id say many engineers put a good part of their careers and life-energy into designing that car - that was not luck, that was intentional design-for-surviability

Luck? - that would be if you had seen the car cutting you off a second sooner and been able to avoid the accident entirely :^)

I think the statistics are: one in four people will be in a serious car accident during their life time. Hopefully you have had yours now.
