The safest cars for your family

A big part of watching out for your health is watching out for your own and your family's safety. There are many dangers out in the world, but one of the biggest safety risks involves something you do everyday without even batting an eyelid: jumping in the car.

Making the decision on which car to get for your family is a big one that involves a lot of factors, but one of the most important is safety. According to Forbes this is the top 10 list of the safest in family cars:

#1 Kia Sedona
#2 Honda Pilot
#3 Ford Taurus X
#4 Acura MDX
#5 Hyundai Santa Fe
#6 Subaru Tribeca
#7 Honda CR-V
#8 Acura RDX
#9 Subaru Legacy
#10 Ford Taurus

Are there any surprises there? Maybe I'm just out of the auto loop but I admit I'm a little shocked that a Kia is in the top spot.

I'm surprised Volvo didn't even make the list. I've always thought of them as the safest, which was my way of justifying their price point.

Perhaps the biggest suprises on this list are indeed the names that are missing. In addition to Volvo, I might expect to see companies like BMW and Mercedes more well represented on this list.

It does seem to be a good thing that a lot of the models on this list are also cars that are financially attainable for a larger segment of the population... safety for the masses!
