The key difference between the 'safe' vs 'unsafe' cars was electronic stability control. We talk a little about it in another post. The other difference was size (namely weight and height of a car). Those were the key themes that emerged.
1) A lot of Nissans. A real lot.
2) A lot of trucks.
3) A lot of the same makes (Nissan, Chevy), while some notable absences (only one Toyota, no Hondas)
4) Kia Spectra is listed twice, with no differentiation. Looks like a mistake, as it is the only one like that. (I'm assuming different years) Edit: It's actually station wagon vs. sedan, with the wagon higher.
