LendingTree's study, based on tens of millions of insurance quotes between November 2022 and November 2023, placed Tesla drivers at the top of the most-accident-prone list. Only...
Why? Just bc the brand doesn’t operate anymore doesn’t mean those cars vanished from the roads. There’s still Saturns and mercuries out there being driven daily.
It’s suspicious that all three top slots went to vehicles that haven’t been produced in ~15 years. It clearly indicates (among numerous other things) something wrong with the data/analysis. I have major doubts that someone currently driving a clapped out 1995 Pontiac Grand Prix is the safest driver on the road.
Got it, thanks. Sounds like the datas misrepresented, at best. I tried to look for myself but ooph those tables were responsive but not mobile friendly
Not sure I believe the statistics in this study seeing as they list a number of legacy brands, such as Saturn.

Did all Saturns disappear from the roads when that brand closed shop?
No, but it’s incredibly suspect that the top 3 cars are all cars that haven’t been produced since 2011 at the latest.
I’m amazed at how many Saturns and Pontiacs I still see on the road.
All the top “safest” cars are legacy brands. They fucked up their analysis.
