Most Dangerous Vehicles Of 2012 « CBS Pittsburgh

We top the list!

 

[Stroked]

Yea, someone else posted that a while back. Funny thing is, my insurance is cheaper on this truck because it is supposedly safer than my Sierra was. Lol. Sure hope my insurance don't go up now

It is not a valid study. nobody knows where they got their statistics from, but it surely wasn't crash data. google up iihc stats and you will see.

Quote from the article:
"the most dangerous vehicle on the road today: The Ram pickup truck."

They must be high. Sure tall vehicles can roll over easier, but damn. I don't want to get hit, but if I did, I would rather be in my Ram than a giant list of other smaller vehicles.

Meanwhile, golf carts, I mean Smart Cars, are going doing 70mph down the highway. Do they use any common sense in these studies?

 

[SuperBeaner]

Yeah Smart cars terrify me. It feels like you would be 110% dead in a 20mph fender bender. Not to mention the way people drive them here in Austin.

I'd wanna be in a iQ. 11 airbags in a roll cage. Worst car, fiat 500. Like 5 airbags?

 

[Trupiano]

This is so stupid. Saying a big truck is "the most dangerous" is absolutely rediculous.

Just trash anything in that review, becuase it's garbage.

 

[shibby927]

Ditto that. Absolutely mind boggling how they could post an article like this. The editor must hate Mopars.

 

[DryBnz]

Dangerous to others I say. I feel very safe in my Ram!

My hometown news station HA my insurance is cheaper on my Ram than it was on my '12 Jeep Wrangler!!

 

[garner]

They're basing a lot of their results off the 2nd gen rams which did poorly in crash tests and the new crash test star rating system(rams were 5 and are now 2 and 3 so a new 2 or 3 is an old 5, and a new 4 and 5 is even better than an old 5)

2009 Dodge Ram 1500 side impact test - YouTube

Yeah that was one of the first tests. They have since fixed the back seat side airbag and it now deploys all the way

 

[TheMaddog]

****, i'm gonna die in mine... according to that, my safety is poor, ummmm air bag upgrade!!

 

[scotts2012ram]

They can kiss my a** with that crap if my buddy and his wife can roll there 09 at 70 and walk away with cuts and bruises. Ill drive one everyday he went and got a 2011 the next week.

Whoever wrote that must be smoking crack, 1500 the most dangerous vehicle? Buuuullshiiittt. Obviously they haven't tested the "street legal" go-carts, the fiat 500 and "smart" car. I guess I'd have to agree that our truck is the most dangerous vehicle, if you have a death sentence and drive a fiat or smart lol

Ahh, but those other vehicles you listed are fuel-efficient. Want to bet the article writer and/or the editor are Democrats and enviro-nazis?

 

[bloombloom88]

I'm not betting **** because I know your right lol. Now that you mention that, where are the writers that are truck owners till they die and despise small cars? We're getting the **** end of the deal here... There's nobody on our side giving bad crash test reports on these golf carts...

 

[Lawhand]

100% not valid, i got the cheapest insurance i have ever had with this truck, so either im lucky or this is 100% false information. A mazda CX-7 not being a safe car? NONSENSE!
