From the website:"the number of cars involved in a fatal crash were normalized by the total number of vehicle miles driven"

They assume every car drives the average number of miles. Of course a CR-V is going to score high, since they likely drive more than an average number of miles.

A 911 on the other hand probably drives a small fraction of the average.

This study is fairly low quality. The IHHS list 13.3 fatalities per billion miles as the actual number.

Isn't that the other way around?

This is fatalities per 10**X miles.
