Rusty Wallace touts Dodge safety after crash

Former NASCAR champ Rusty Wallace had only good things to say about his 2006 Dodge Durango when he and his family emerged unscathed from the vehicle after it was T-boned on the driver's side by an absent minded driver talking on her cell phone. The former driver of the No. 2 Dodge was quoted after the accident saying, "You hear car companies talk about safety a lot, but I can tell you that (wife) Patti and I are both really thankful for the research and development that Dodge puts into the safety of their vehicles." From reports found in various articles, the accident sounds like it was pretty severe, but all parties involved are thankfully OK.

And no, Wallace isn't on DaimlerChrysler's payroll (as far as we know), but maybe he should be.
