Thanks, but you know these stats don't say a thing about how safe the cars are! What they say is how likely a person who drives a particular car is to have a crash and die. These are two very different things. For instance the Corvette is WORSE than a Geo tracker according to this study! It is clear that you would be better off in a Corvette in an accedent than ANY Geo, but....the type person who DRIVES a Red Corvette is more likely to get into a deadly crash than a person driving a conserative Saab. So these stats don't say much (a little I admit) about the CARS safety.

How about the DOT tests, they would have a true report on which are SAFER.
