How Safe is Your Car?

Don't know why I found this but I located some cool 40 mph crash video's courtesy of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Goto www.nadaguides.com and search for the make, model and year of your car. Below the Price area of the vehicle description should be a list of options, one of which will be Pictures and Videos, you want "crash videos." Check it out to see your car mangled. That had me curious about other safety factors about my car. All these things I didn't consider before I bought my car ;). Go to IIHS.org. Their site is pretty cool but difficult to navigate. Again, locate the vehicle search page in the Vehicle Ratings area and see how you fare. I even found an article and video that explained how much I can expect to pay if my bumpers get into a 6 mph crash with a pole. $1543. Ouch!
