    Because it is a fact- size and weight is a huge advantage in a 2 car crash. The occupants of the heavier car are typicaly going to be in a better position in 2 car crashes.

    You are right about a single vehicle crash hitting a fixed object - the weight of the vehicle is less or no advantage.
