As I said, side impacts are not going to be pretty. :<(

Actually, impacts with big trucks and SUVs from the front or rear are 
problematic because they are jacked up so high that they will literally run over 
the top of us.   Although, that might actually be a good thing, as it would 
dissapate energy.   

My plan is to just avoid getting hit!   Fingers crossed there!
