Boch Maserati knows that safety is a foremost consideration for car buyers in Norwood, MA. You might be confused by the various safety ratings that are assigned to vehicles. Here’s a brief look at understanding the differences in these ratings.

This organization is overseen by the US Department of Transportation. They rate cars for safety with one to five stars, and generally, their ratings are considered to be reliable.
