We consider many factors when choosing a car for our family; size, color, design, options and suitability to our lifestyle. However, safety is the most important factor. How safe is your vehicle in an accident?

Visit this link to view your car’s safety rating: http://www.safercar.gov/Safety+Ratings . This website features a separate safety rating for each seat of your car and for vehicle rollovers. I was happy to discover that my 2005 Dodge Magnum has a 5 star safety rating for all seats but the “driver passenger” seat. This helps me decide the safest place to install my toddler’s carseat. Speaking of car seats, this website also offers “Parents Central”, a complete resource for child safety tips, car seat ratings, installation instructions and even a “Child Car Seat Inspection Station Locator”! In all, this website is a complete and easy navigable resource for vehicle safety for your entire family. Select your vehicle’s year, make and model and find safety ratings, recalls, investigations and complaints on your specific vehicle. You can also compare several makes and models simultaeneously. It is simple, the more stars equal safer cars.
