This entire piece seems premised on IIHS being a government agency, but it's a private organization that's funded by the insurance industry. And FWIW the new CAFE rules just published by EPA and DOE will limit the footprint of light trucks, which may reverse some of the growth we've seen.
I fully and openly admit that the IIHS has no ability to direct policy, just influence automakers?
