Top 10 vehicles involved in the most fatal vehicle accidents between 2016 and 2020:



Chevrolet Silverado: 8,777 accidents.

Ford F-150: 7,502 accidents.

Honda Accord: 5,368 accidents.

Toyota Camry: 5,023 accidents.

Dodge Ram: 4,666 accidents.

The ratio of deadly accidents can increase in the case of traditional sedans due to their broad application and high usage levels on highways.


The other type of vehicle that is often found in fatal crashes is pick-up trucks, especially the bigger ones, probably because of their size and sometimes aggressive driving behavior.


The advent of Sport Utility Vehicles (SUVs) is a dynamic innovation; their greater height from the ground and thus higher center of gravity makes rollover accidents more likely to occur and to be of higher severity.


Motorcycles are found to be naturally unsafe compared to other vehicles since they do not have any protective structures, meaning that riders face many risks while in an accident.


One of the traffic safety issues is caused by large commercial trucks. They can cause massive damage, and their presence in fatal accidents is very prominent, mostly on highways.


Vans, which are typically used for commercial reasons or as people-carriers, can also become the reason for fatalities, mostly in rollover mishaps.
