The real difference here in TV is that getting tossed out onto the street pavement in front of an oncoming truck or car going 30 mph....that then runs over us....is far more deadly or maiming than getting thrown out onto golf course turf. Many of the fatalities here have been from being thrown out and then getting run over by a much bigger vehicle.
Also, getting thrown out and hitting one's skull on a concrete curb or on pavement is a lot more likely to result in massive brain bleeding and spillage than if the head hits golf course grass.
Driver/passenger ejection studies done on golf course turf really do not apply to driving on paved city streets in 20-30 mph car/truck
traffic here.
