My wife's beloved green '94 940 wagon carried on the Volvo tradition this afternoon. My wife was stopped at a red light, and got rearended by a large Ford van, which took most of the back of the Volvo out, it's now got a nice crease in the roof, both driver's side doors won't open, and the paramedics had to get my wife out through the passenger door - luckily all she suffered was shock and a couple of small bruses. The first words the paramedic said to her were "good thing you were driving a Volvo". Made me think back a couple of years whn she insisted I get a Volvo in place of my VW, she always said we needed more steel round us - thank you Volvo.
