Regardless of whether you are looking for a used or new car, you should check out the safety ratings. Accidents can occur at any time even if you are an extremely cautious driver. However, you will be better protected if you are driving a safe vehicle. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration performs a series of test in order to determine how safe a vehicle is.
The frontal crash test, side barrier crash test, side pole crash test and rollover resistance test will be used to determine the safety profile of the vehicle. The NHTSA will then give the vehicle a rating that ranges from one to five. Studies have shown that people who drive a vehicle with a high safety rating are 70 percent less likely to die in an accident. That is why you need a vehicle with a rating of four or five.
