Weighing the Factors for Vehicle Safety

Over the years, standards in vehicle safety have steadily improved. It's hard to imagine that just a generation ago, seat belts were optional. Now, with airbags and a host of other improvements, most vehicles are reliably safer than they once were.

Glass Doctor recently compiled a list of the most dangerous automotive brands in each state. They looked at ten years' worth of data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and identified patterns.

The Most Dangerous Vehicle Brands in Arizona

The study listed Chrysler vehicles in the number three spot for the most dangerous vehicle in Arizona, citing Mitsubishi vehicles as the number two most dangerous to drive.

Glass Doctor found that Dodge had 64% of the fatal crashes of any other car brand, not only in the state of Arizona, but this brand is the least safe in the entire United States. Making Dodge the most dangerous vehicle to drive.

Choose Safety Over Other Automotive Features

There's good news. The study identified three vehicles that stood out for their safety in Arizona.

Mercedes-Benz snagged the number three spot, Audi came in at number two, and the brand perennially lauded for safety, Subaru, found itself on top as the number one safest vehicle to drive in Arizona.
