For a long time Volvo was well known as a car manufacturer which gives safety a top priority on all of its products. But recently I rarely heard about this brand. Is it still the safest brand of cars?

You had me wonder about this so I decided to do some research. It seems the Volvo is still on the list of safest cars. Here is a link to what I found.

Thanks Robert for sharing the link. Yes Volvo is still on the list for some of their products, but they are not on the top anymore. It seems that Buick and Ford are better options when it comes to safety.

It is a good read and thanks to you Robert. Volvo is included in three classes of cars where the reviewers rated it as safe to drive. I would be considering Volvo then if ever I will buy a new car.

Ummmmmm let me see-pedal? LOL!!! That would be the safest but I don't know how far you would be able to get! I like Volvos pretty much. I would think that Kia would be doing pretty good in that area too. They have been making a pretty reliable vehicle lately. The 100,000 mile warrenty is pretty good too.

I've always heard things about Volvo being safest, but in Australia now all cars have to have a certain safety rating, it makes it easy to compare. I guess an SUV or 4WD is the best option for your safety, just not the other drivers...

There will always be idiots in th world and idiot drivers, for me, even a safe car is no guarantee. I would be the one to put a damper on this one, sorry. Volvo good but not perfect, just like the rest.
