I lived up north for quite a few years and seen and attended more then my share of moose and car MVA's.

The trouble with hitting a moose...especially in today's smaller cars is not so much the initial collision.

The real issue is that the cars are low enough that if they hit the moose fast, low and hard enough in the legs which then causes said moose to then fall back and hit the windshield area and front roof of the car. The sheer weight of the moose crushes and caves in the roof and I will leave it to your imagination as to what happens to the occupants, especially in the front seats...
