Which is safer, truck / trailer or motorhome?

I subscribe to the theory that when it's your time, it's your time. I should have been dead years ago given some of the **** I pulled or got into. It just wasn't my time.

Having flipping over end to end in a 54 ford convertible, and walking away from motor cycle accidents when a kid I feel fortunate to be alive today. Having said that and working on new helicopter designs for crash-worthiness I can tell you the best designs were the ones were the airframe would crumple in a progressive manner. The airframe had to survive a 20 g crash and the pilot had to walk away. When you looked at the crash photos the lower fuselage was completely crushed and most people would say how could anyone survive that crash but they did. In a more ridged airframe the pilot would have died because he would have adsorbed that energy and not the airframe. I don't know how if MH's are designed for any crash criteria but if you look at the video a previous poster showed of the commercial bus in a head on collision with a wall I would say the front seat passengers would not have walked away.
