Quite like this, I may do it...

Modern cars are designed that way on purpose. The car is mechanically fine and can be driven with full performance. The bike however is currently unrideable.

You could just said "crumple zone" instead.

No, that's a bumper, not a crumple zone. Big difference.

Back of a scaffolders van on the M25 read "make sure your next erection is in safe hands" I felt harder just by being on the same road as him.

Not at all, the bumper in the photo is designed to deform relatively easily in much the same way as a crumple zone but does so for completely different reasons.

The bumper deforms in an effort to prevent the legs of pedestrians from being broken when they absent-mindedly meander into the centre of the road, in an iPod induced haze, and get hit by a car, they are also designed to stop said pedestrian's head from smashing into the bonnet of the car at a speed likely to cause severe brain injuries by cushioning the blow and making them 'fall' (unsure of the correct terminology) at a much slower rate. As this photograph demonstrates it would appear that they also work very well at lessening the impact when a car rear ends a cyclist, if that car had been 10 years older the consequences for the cyclist would have been much worse. At the end of the day these bumpers are also designed to be replaced very easily and when they deform they do not damage the structural integrity of the car or its chassis.

A crumple zone on the other hand is a section of the car's structure that is designed to deform, initially decelerating the car and absorbing kinetic energy, and then when it can no longer do this, dissipate the energy through the chassis and passenger safety cell of the car away from its occupants thereby protecting them. Once the crumple zones on a car have been used it is very difficult to repair them, the car is normally a write off, but it has been sacrificed to preserve the lives of the people inside it.

Superficially these two systems are similar, but, the tolerances under which they operate, and the consequences when are deployed are very different and they subsequently should not be confused.

Oh and by the way the lyrics of that particular song are:

"You say potato, I say patattah"

God I'm bored today!

tl;dr

Short version for the hard of reading:

bumper/crumple zone themz different

I says fail since anyone who passed by would probably know you have a bike inside.
