The safest cars in 2007

Have you ever wondered how safe your cars is? Well, I know I have and I always tend to choose my car based on the safety ratings. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety is the authority conducting these tests. They do front and side crashes at high speeds. They see how much of a crick in the neck you get after being hit in the rear.
