this is what you get for buying cheap noname brand car from Temu

similar thing happened with that British LGBT brand, which is gone

though it's clear people who buy BMW are not mentally sane anyway, I'm yet to see BMW driver with stable personality who would not vent their mental issues on the road, these people will buy BMW with literally any design and specs just because it's BMW, no matter it looks like ugly tank

I honestly believe if we banned BMW car registrations number of accidents would drop much more than it's their total share on registrations.

Seriously not helpful, and have you actually matched this opinion to the statistics which are freely available?

yes, these are data from Czechia in 2022, TOP10 (it's percentage share of accidents per operated/registered cars, it doesn't take into consideration km travelled though which would eliminate all the trucks immediately with their yearly mileage):

1. DAF 4,67%

2. MAN 3,60%

3. Iveco 2,99%

4. Mercedes-Benz 1,53%

5. Volvo 1,34%

6. BMW 1,04%

7. Audi 1,02%

8. Fiat 0,89%

9. Renault 0,86%

10. Volkswagen 0,83%

Guess which of these brands doesn't sell trucks (just a little bit hint - Mercedes and Volvo sell a lot of trucks in Europe) and you will get number one among passenger cars from one brand which doesn't sell trucks and cause the most accidents followed unsurprisingly by Audi.

different chart from 2025 from CEBIA in Czechia, company checking whether car was crashed and their findings, percentage of cars they were checking and which actually crashed, though this one just says percentage out of verified cars, it must be noted that Skoda/Toyota are extremely popular in Czechia, so they are also more likely to have accidents:

Audi 69,69 %

BMW 68,82 %

Škoda 64,37 %

Toyota 63,87 %

Mercedes-Benz 62,27 %

Hyundai 61,95 %

Volvo 58,59 %

Volkswagen 56,02 %

Seat 55,02 %

Mazda 54,78 %
