Can I ask why you wish to exclude IIHS?

This website describes a comprehensive approach to evaluating the relative safety of vehicles, utilizing ratings and fatality data provided by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). The risk index SCORE (Statistical Combination Of Risk Elements) demonstrates superior correlation with actual driver fatalities than any other safety evaluation method and you can learn its derivation and the SCOREs for many popular vehicles on this website.

Fatality rates for some vehicles are more than 20x higher than for others. Consumers, determined to select a "safe" vehicle, and who seek guidance from NHTSA and IIHS crash-test ratings, often find it very difficult to utilize these resources effectively, . . .

The SCORE (Statistical Combination Of Risk Elements) was created to address these deficiencies by utilizing a mathematical model to combine, on a fatality-weighted basis, all available, quantifiable, validated data published by NHTSA and IIHS, to derive a single, overall measure of fatality risk.

There are three basic components to vehicle safety, and all three are readily quantifiable: (1) accident avoidance, (2) crashworthiness, and (3) vehicle incompatibility. In order to evaluate overall safety all three components must be combined in a statistically meaningful way, and by using actual traffic fatality data it is possible to assign the appropriate “weight” to each of these components.
