Crash test ratings for 2011 vehicles
A look at the results of the government’s updated “5-Star Safety Rating System” released Tuesday. The system evaluates vehicles based on front-end and side-impact crashes and rollover tests, along with crash-prevention technologies and a new test that simulates a car striking a pole. The ratings range from one to five stars, with five stars being the highest.
