Three models named top safety picksThe Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has bestowed its highest award on three new models: the Dodge Journey, Lincoln MKT and Mazda3. All three vehicles received the institute's highest rating in the front, side and rear tests, and all three featured standard stability control. Of the three, only the Dodge (right) received the IIHS's top marks in every category. The Lincoln and Mazda received a handful of "Acceptable" ratings, although their overall evaluations were strong enough to receive the "Top Safety Pick" award.
