No use one de. The bumper may survive, but the joints and other parts of the car chui chui. The bumper is meant to be bumped. Dunno why people want to reinforce it with iron bars.

I drive a first generation (2005) Picanto. No airbags, no ESP and NO ABS. Like that is how?

 

When it comes to road safety, my driving instructor used to say: "It's the man, not the machine." At the end of the day, it's up to the driver to be alert, to anticipate in advance and always practice defensive driving. No car special safety feature can save you from a crash if inherently your driving skills just plain suck.

Sometimes nothing to do with skill.

Luck also important.
