Good to see your dad was unhurt and the car did exactly what it was suppose to do. Protect the occupants by crumple zones collapsing, Airbags and pre-tensioner seat belts activating.
An older car and it would have hurt a lot more.
Hes just got to get a new car now.

What did the kind police man have to say? I' sure he was only interested in your dads health?

30mph? bloody hell! amazing what damage you can do at those speeds. Its probably because he hit something solid and there was no "give" in the barrier. Glad he's ok though.

Glad he's ok. Like someone already said. Good to see the crumple zones etc took most of the impact.
