Electronic Stability Control (ESC and other acronyms) has been shown to significantly reduce the chance of accidents.
Since the best way to avoid an accident is not to have one, ESC is a good idea. So, I cross-referenced 2004-2006 vehicles which had ESC against NCAP crash test ratings, and filtered out the vehicles which had only a 3-star or lower crash test rating.
Click here for the results.
