Not all cars are created equal, especially when it comes to safety. While some vehicles are engineered to protect you in a crash, others fall short, putting drivers at higher risk of fatal accidents. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) recently released data on driver death rates by make and model, revealing which cars are statistically the most dangerous to drive. These numbers are based on deaths per million registered vehicle years, offering a sobering look at how vehicle design, size, and driver behavior intersect. If you’re shopping for a used car (or just curious about your current ride), this list might surprise you.
