Automotive Recalls
Lists recalls for all cars from 1960 and up. Could be an excellent resource for a buyer concerned about whether a recall service was actually performed.

Insurance Institute for Highway Safety
You've heard about crash tests and wondered about the results. The Institute lists them by make and model on its site. These numbers don't lie, but accident avoidance should be the priority.

National Transportation Library
An extensive online reference library for information on transportation, including safety, from a variety of government and private organizations.

NHTSA crash tests
If you anticipate having an accident, check here first. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration crashes and rates cars by class. The results may surprise you.
