The thing he was asking is which is worse..and the fact is that hitting a completely immovable and solid object at 100, and hitting an oncoming car of the same mass and speed as you actually will have the SAME affect on you.. as the rusultant decelleration will be the same.

If the other vehicle is smaller than you then you are always better of hitting it than a solid wall..
