Tom Anderson gurgled happily, sounding much like
they were saying:

Like (according to Ian Banks) Land-Rovers, a tram's crumple zone
probably consists of other vehicles.

So Land-Rover driver will just have to hope that if they do have a
collision that it is not with another Land-Rover.

That would result in a logically impossible situation. Since impossible
situations cannot occur, Land Rovers cannot ever collide. Thus, all cars
should be replaced with Land Rovers, and there would be no more
collisions. QED.

Er, although i'm not sure how great that would be for non-car road
users.

shrug
Just give 'em all Landies.
