Your life expectancy is how old you will likely be when you'll die. It doesn't go down when you do something harmless for 60 minutes, you just... get 60 minutes

Your life expectancy is how old you will likely be when you'll die. It doesn't go down when you do something harmless for 60 minutes, you just... get 60 minutes older ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ So yeah, what this means is you lose 80 minutes every hour. > So what's the comparison for this number? In one column you have the age a person died, in another one you have the estimated time they spent driving during their life. Not a rigorous proof of causation, but I mean... which part of the dataset would you like to be in? Depending on situation, this might be acceptable to some when no other option takes less than 133% more time. But it is something you should definitely take into account. It is also kind of unfair to interpret it like this because cars can screw up traffic for other vehicles too, like traffic jams hinder public transport in my city on a regular basis.
