Say hello to the new version of bumper cars! Well, no not really. Students in Japan built this car with pillow soft air cushions surrounding the car which allows the car to have none or minimal damage in a low speed accident. It also was built with the purpose in mind to save pedestrians. If someone walking was to be hit by this car, it would most likely result in no injuries or something very minor. Check the video below of the students showing it off. The car cost roughly about $9,000 USD, with a top speed of about 31mph. It is a cool idea and all, but you wouldn’t see me pushing this. I much rather speed and honk my way through crowds.
