Make vehicles less prone to exploding from collision

Difficulty =/= Realism

I just found a tractor in the middle of a road in some small town, and it was fully working. I had scrap metal in my backpack, so I repaired the hull. The hull was 100% repaired. I was driving down some road at 20 kph. I accidentally bump into a street light, and the entire tractor explodes. How is that realistic in any way? It's also ridiculous. I have found cars several times, and almost all of the time, I just end up dying because the car absolutely blows up when I hit a rock going at 10 kph.

Reduce the damage that collision does to your car. It's ridiculous to hit a bump on the road and explode.

A vehicle will only explode if one of the parts is really really damaged, the engine for example. You can't just fix up the hull by itself you need to fix EVERYTHING to make the vehicle 'stable'.

How about I run into your bus? And then hope it explodes? Or I go underneath and go crunch and still explode it. Or maybe I'll throw a can!

I just ran into a damn dead body and my whole car blew up and I died. What the christ?
