If I rear ended a stopped car going 55-60 MPH could I walk away unscathed?!

Could you? Sure, especially with an airbag in addition to the seat belt. It's also very possible that you would be bruised by the seat belt, have neck pain, possibly a closed head injury, get cut or bruised by flying glass and other objects, or be hurt otherwise.

A few years ago I was driving on a highway going 65 mph or so and a deer ran out in front of my SUV. I braked hard and the person in the SUV behind me failed to see the deer, or that I was nearly stopped, or anything, and hit me without even touching the brakes! I was pretty sore the next day, but basically OK and the other driver who rear-ended me just got a bloody nose and very minor facial scratches when they hit the airbag. Airbags combined with seat belts save a lot of lives and prevent a lot of serious injuries.

I was in a car accident ( I was rear ended) on a highway at 60mph, and the truck that hit us and us were ok, but we were slowed down before it happened i think. So not sure..

Don't go try rear ending anyone!
