That's the joke
We now know that cars are not an effective anti-submarine countermeasure.
No, too many variables. We only know that a Volvo PV544 isn't effective against that particular Swedish submarine. We now need to crash several different cars against several different submarines several times, for science!
What do you mean they had to scrap the submarine
No, no. You just need to up the acceleration.

Oh wow you couldn't find this original very real article? How strange
You think someone would just lie like that 😰
