Car safety
2007 safest vans
We turned to the New Car Assessment Program, a branch of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, to determine the safest new cars on the market.
How ratings were determined: Vans were rated in five categories: impact to the driver in a frontal crash; impact to the passenger in a frontal crash; impact to riders in the front seat during a side-impact crash; impact to riders in the rear seat during a side-impact crash; and the likelihood of a rollover in a single-vehicle crash. These vans received the highest rating of five stars in at least four of those categories, and no fewer than four stars in the remaining category.
