Nothing screams safe like a solid unibody chassis with no crumple zones, a high center of gravity, terrible visibility and an ride height that forces pedestrians under the wheels in an impact. safe
Joke's on you, the Repulsor/Impulsor does not have wheels. It levitates.
Also jokes on you, the levitation technology used is described as cracking apart the ground as it moves, and would likely do far worse to a human body than regular ass wheels would.
Never said it wouldn't hurt.
The central turret position gives it pretty good visibility considering its size!
Tanks are pretty noticable to be fair. Pretty sure if I saw one on my block heading towards me I would see it.
But would you have time to move out of its way when it is traveling 60+ mph on the suburban stroads?
