    Is your car safe?

    With gas prices climbing for the past couple of years, most drivers are looking for cars that get good gas mileage. But if safety is also important to you, there's a new resource available from the government.

    A new public database can be accessed that lets you see how many alleged deaths, injuries and cases of property damage involve specific passenger vehicles. The availability of the information is a direct result of a massive tire recall in 2000.

    You can see the 'early warning' data at http://www.safercar.gov.
