Car accident, new safe car for my sister
My sister was just involved in a car accident. She was driving a Nissan Pathfinder when she was hit in the passenger door. The car flipped over and ended up on its roof. The airbags did not deploy but she was buckled up and thank heavens she walked away with just pulled muscles and a stiff neck. SUVs have the rollover problem, but I guess it was safe and big enough to keep her alive and injury free.
The car is totaled, so my parents entrusted me with the research of finding a really safe car for her. From what I've read so far, in addition to the safety features and the airbags the size and the weight of the car matter.
Has anyone looked into the safe cars for any of their family members? Any recommendation? Any help is appreciated.
