Hood ornament or not, it can be hazardous to be hit by a car.

it's just the silly European-only regulation that make them illegal.


Well these can still be quite dangerous when a car hits a pedestrian
I am happy that the Mercedes which hit me did not had a fixed hard ornament (C126, if I remember well)

Here to, but not on new cars. If it is an old car, it is allowed. by old, i think the law came in in the 90's. I know the 70's Valiant Charger had one...

But we are lucky. how dangerous is the '57 Chevy, with its spear like points!

They are still legal in the US, it's just the silly European-only regulation that make them illegal.

Yes, they disappeared because of safety reasons of course. Not so nice when they're going through a pedestrian. :smile:

I thought I'd put them here to help with identification, but it's a fairly random collection... Should be many more.
