This is a question that kind of pushes my buttons so excuse the rant, but why would you even ask this? Cars today are safer than EVER before. They're safer than 10 years ago. There don't seem to be any unsafe cars sold today. Even the Smart For-Two has IIHS ratings of "good" across the board (its highest rating). Plus, if you're paying attention to how you drive to get better mileage you're better off than just about all the other drivers out there.
