When parking goes bad
Good Deal Guide: more money-saving features
Accidents happen: last year, over 1,600 people were killed in car accidents in the UK, and 12,650 were seriously injured. So how can you minimise your chances of becoming a statistic?
While almost all new cars on sale in Western Europe now come with vital safety items such as ABS (anti-lock brakes) and meet minimum Europe-wide standards, they do not all offer the same levels of protection in the event of an impact, or help you stay out of trouble in the first place.
There are plenty of points to consider when choosing your next new car, or making sure that your older second-hand car is as safe as possible.
