The modern.
The Escort may have a roll cage and seat belts, but its also got cart springs, thin, tall tyres, a poorly located live axle, shitty headlights, worm and roller steering, drum brakes, and chronic oversteer. You are far more likely to crash it in the first place. It's primary safety is terrible.
