http://www.carsafet­y.org/vehicle_rating­s/ratings.htm

gives crash safety ratings if you fill in the model. Unfortunately it
does not list the best and worst.

How serious is the motor vehicle rollover problem in the U.S. today?

Single-vehicle rollovers (for all vehicles, not just SUVs) cause more
fatalities than any other kind of motor-vehicle accident --
one-quarter of all deaths yearly. In 1999, 63 percent of all SUV
deaths were in rollovers.

Do SUVs have higher rollover rates than other types of vehicles?

Yes. In 2000, SUVs had the highest rollover involvement rate of any
vehicle type in fatal crashes -- 36 percent, as compared with 24
percent for pickups, 19 percent for vans and 15 percent for traffic
cars. SUVs also had the highest rollover rate for passenger vehicles
in injury crashes -- 12 percent, as compared to 7 percent for pickups,
4 percent for vans and 3 percent for passenger cars.

There was a TV news item a month or so ago about SUVs and safety.
Oddly they seemed to do both better and worse than other vehicles
depending on the manufacturer.
