“How come so few people die in Volvos, BMWs and Audis?”

I have never seen any data to suggest that. Where do you get your data? I have known people to die in Mercedes, BMW, Volvo, and other so-called “safe” cars.

“Where do you get your data?”

- Admittedly, I can't prove that a given Volvo is a safer car than a comparable Toyota.

But, on the other hand, I've never heard of anyone who've died in a European quality/premium car (like Volvo, BMW etc).

For some reason, I often hear of people who've lost their lives driving/traveling around in Japanese cars. Since 15 years ago or so, I've been asking people telling me such stories from their own personal background what kind of car brand was involved. So far, BMW, Audi, Volvo or Mercedes has never been mentioned.

If you ask me, these two sites speak pretty much for themselves:
