Do you have some numbers to support your claims?
- todd8 9y agoYes, From CDC: > In large central metro areas, those aged 35–44 years (2.08), 45–54 years (2.60), 55–64 years (2.60), 65–74 years (3.36), 75–84 years (5.19), and ≥85 years (5.24) had statistically higher death rates than those in the same age groups at other urbanization levels.

- lsc 9y agomost US metros don't have workable public transit; most people drive to get from point a to point b even in our dense metros. Perhaps because even our metros are not dense enough, perhaps for other reasons. I would be open to data that showed there were more traffic deaths in dense areas where most people took public transit, but this isn't it.
- AstralStorm 9y agoDoes this hold adjusted for miles driven?
- eveningcoffee 9y agoWell, my claim was mostly that the speed is not the only factor but also the traffic density.
