Safety isn't the most noticeable feature of a vehicle. It doesn't scream at you like a decorative set of LED headlights. It's not something you feel, like a 375 horsepower engine. Still though, a recent survey by Swaplease.com shows people are taking notice. In addition to shedding some insight into drivers' favorite technologies, the survey also indicates which brands consumers believe are doing the best job creating new safety technologies.
Hendrick BMW Northlake is proud to say that BMW is high on the list. With over 45 percent of all votes, the German automaker ranked second best overall. And just one look at any new BMW model will tell you why.
