Disclaimer

Crash test ratings aren’t the sole or the most accurate indicators that reflect how safe would the occupants be in the event of a crash. Other factors that should be considered in order to determine how safe a car is are driver comfort, driver assistance systems, structural integrity of the vehicle and more. Furthermore, the occupants have to adhere to the safety norms such as using seatbelts on all the seats, whether at the front or rear, as well as using child seats for any children travelling in the vehicle, in order to let the safety features protect them in case of a mishap. No matter how safe a car has been proven to be, there are chances of major injuries or even fatalities if all the necessary precautions are not taken by the occupants.
