10 Deadliest Vehicles on the Road

The 10 most deadly vehicles on the road...according to Insurance Institute for Highway Safety based on actual traffic data not just crash tests.... don't buy a pick up truck if you want to live is the bottom line.  But why exactly these particular vehicles end up in more deadly crashes than others isn't mentioned, except that some vehicles are heavily used in the rental car industry.. and most people are less careful with property that they don't own. But they don't go into the personality type of the the car owner. The last vehicle mentioned Nissan 350Z 2-door looks like an arrogant man magnet... either the midlife crisis crowd or the 20 year old drunken frat boy. Imagine it in red.
Here is the Wall Street Journal article:

More James Dean

As with anything on the internet, you start out in one corner and end up down the rabbit hole.
Found some bizarre images of Dean on the set of "Giant" including some light bondage with Elizabeth Taylor... I have also included some iconic crash images..
Enjoy

James Dean / Paul Walker similarities

The similarities between the James Dean crash and Paul Walker crash are pretty strange... Here's a few so far
1. Dean died in a 1955 Porsche Super Speedster  --- Walker died in a 2005 Porsche Carrera GT
2. Dean died in Salinas, California --- Walker died in Santa Clarita, California
3. Dean was heading to a race in Salinas California -- Walker had finished a charity race earlier in the day
4. Dean raced professionally -- Walker did too
5. Dean had his mechanic Rolf Wütherich in the car at the time of the crash (he lived) -- Walker had his racing buddy Roger Rodas in the car (he died)
6. James Dean was an actor ---- Walker was an actor
7. Both were extremely gorgeous men
Will do a bit more digging, but perhaps that is all I have right now
