This infographic displays the crash test statistics and overall performance of minicars. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety recently revealed that minicars are the poorest-performing vehicle group, considering the fact that only one out of 11 minicars received an acceptable rating in the small-overlap front crash test.
It is important to be well informed of the risks associated with driving a minicar, as the small, lightweight structure of these vehicles reduces passenger safety. In contrast, vehicles in the small car category—which are slightly larger—have received better overall ratings.
This is a reminder from a Michigan license restoration lawyer that occupant safety is the most important factor to consider when purchasing a car. Keep in mind that larger cars are generally safer.
