You're absolutely right. I think they would just bury you car and all, because in any major accident at all, it's going to be a hard time picking bits of you out of the vents, etc.....

Out here on the high Plains, we get winds of 25-30 and gusts up to 40-50mph....there's no way you're keeping that car on the highway with that! You're going to look like you're riding a tumbleweed.

Agreed, I have a fondness for these cars as well I went to Germany in '03 to visit family and seen a ton of these cars running about. I remember thinking "why don't they import these to the US?". It's great to see that actually happening
