I'm snugly located 3 blocks south of the East Atlanta Village; 2 miles south of Little Five Points and 1 mile east of the Grant Park Zoo.

Following guidance from some colleagues, I've been poring over NHTSA's Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS). Of course it's fatality-oriented crash data, but I cannot find database information on anything bu Isuzu Rodeos and Trooper II crash reports (curious-though, there seem to be a fair number of these in Florida on dry pavement in fair weather).

I've also browsed the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's individual vehicle ratings for the 40 mph frontal offset crash test, a rule-of-thumb rating system for vehicle crashworthiness. The Amigo is the only compact SUV by Isuzu that is rated and it doesn't fair too well in the ratings. (Of course, no one would draw any comparisons between the safety of a Corvair and Caprice, though both were made by the same manufacturer.)

So, I might have to wait until my visit to DC to see who can tell me more about how to learn about VX crash and rollover histories.
