[alfa] Moose test

[C M Smith <cmsmith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Many thanks for the post about the collision avoidance Elk test which is in 
truth far more important than the collision survival test.

I recently (as in yesterday) had this brought  to my attention when 
returning from Vancouver (at the end of a 1,000 km drive) in my 97 SAAB 
Aero. The very first time I have encountered a Moose, when passing through 
Banff Park on my way home. He at least had the decency to wait at the edge 
of the highway before attempting to cross or I would have tested at least 
one of my SAAB's Moose survival features, and possibly both.

Let me assure you that a full grown Moose standing in the dark beside the 
highway is a truly awesome spectacle when viewed in the grey light of your 
headlights!

I believe the Alfa Romeo 164 would do well in either or both Elk tests.....

Cheers everyone.
