December 20, 2012 – While car safety has generally improved in recent years, a new, more specific, crash test designed and administered by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), revealed that eight of eleven luxury and near luxury cars weren’t up to the challenge.

They flunked the test.

This new test, which replicates certain front end collisions, was created in part to help stave off the 10,000 plus deaths which still occur every year despite the auto industry’s ongoing efforts to improve vehicle safety.

When automobile accidents result in serious injury or death, we are typically called upon to assist the survivors with structured settlement choices designed to help them put their lives back in order where injury compensation proceeds are concerned.

While we pride ourselves on our ability to help clients with their post-accident settlement planning, we hope you never require our services because of an auto accident you or your loved ones are involved in.

And if you are in the market for a new car, it may be worth your time to review these crash results before making your selection.

Wishing you an accident-free holiday season and safe driving in 2013 and beyond!
