That morning prorussian rebels had announced their assault on mariupol had begun then abruptly denied it as casualty figures started to climb and blamed the Ukrainian Army instead. What happens next scott depends on president Vladimir Putin whos already hurting from sanctions and the drop in oil prices.

Reporter according to the report the chances of dying in a crash in a late model vehicle in 2011 fell by 41 compared to late model vehicles in 2008. Eight years ago, no vehicle model had zero driver deaths, but nine different 2011 models have not had a single driver fatality. Six of those nine are suvs. Thats a real turnaround from a decade ago when suvs werent the safest vehicles on the road because they had a tendency to roll over. Reporter the big life safer for suv drivers is electronic stability control which applies the blacks if it senses the vehicle is starting to spin out of control. He says other crucial safety changes that saved lives is increased use of seat belts air bags and stronger structural designs. For some cars, though, the report contains some bad news. The highest driver death rates are for the kia rio the nissan versa sedan and the hyundai. Reporter the smallest vehicles are the ones with the highest death rates.
