Why is it even relevant what car was involved in an accident?

discuss

order

In this context, maybe it can tell you if some brand put a weaker engine in their vehicles and the extra time in overtaking is causing accidents

Or maybe a specific maker has a problem with a specific part shared across models

We're looking for patterns, not rules, extra shared data is generally better

In "one" accident, maybe not very. But as a criteria to do statistical studies, make, model, year and maintenance would be quite interesting. The whole point of this data is to do studies.

But why focus on the car only? To me it would be interesting to know where has the driver got the driver license from. Or if they have a medical condition. Or maybe they have a stiff neck on the day of the accident. Were they distracted by children?

I’m probably failing to see the difference between Peugeot 208 or Renault 5 being involved in an accident. What insights could one expect from this info?
