Are You Safe Enough? 

Are You Safe Enough?

The Insurance Institute For Highway Safety (IIHS) is known for doing crash tests so as to see which vehicles are worth looking into when it comes to providing more than enough safety for its passengers during crashes or collisions.

According to the institute, it gives the crashworthiness of vehicles ratings like good, acceptable, marginal, or poor. These ratings are based on the vehicles’ performance in front, side, and rear impact tests. Those that earn the highest marks (good) receive the gold award for the IIHS’ Top Safety Picks for 2006. Those that receive high marks (acceptable) would be awarded the silver for the same list.

GOLD AWARDS –

Indeed, this is a good way so much so that consumers who are very much concerned about safety could be able to see which vehicles are worth looking into when it comes to finding the right car that would provide if not ample, but more than enough, safety for its passengers. Safety is also not just received through anti lock brakes, seat belts, and air bags. Keeping a vehicle’s parts in good condition also provides much help. If there are any worn out parts in your vehicle like fuel system parts, exhaust system parts, or the electrical system parts, one could find durable yet easy-on-the pocket auto parts at Auto Parts Inner.
