Do you have a source for this? I'm honestly curious. In every near-miss I've had in traffic, the only performance that would have helped is braking performance. And I drive a Kei car as a sole family car. On long highway road trips.

My point of view came from personal experience, but it's encoded in all sorts of safety requirements concerning tires, brakes, suspension, etc.

Good handling is also very important for safety. SUVs before stability control are a perfect example of this.
