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?

Sure, but that's an information that is difficult to create; it will result from a police investigation (and even then, may or may not be accurate).

Mark, model and age of the vehicle is 1/ incredibly easy to get and 2/ 100% reliable.

It's not the end-all be-all of road safety, but it's interesting; and the fact that all it took to not publish it was some lobbying effort from car makers is incredible.
