That doesn’t count people who don’t get in a car wreck, simply because they walked to buy groceries

- throwaway0a5e 4y agoAren't we comparing drivers vs drivers here? If we aren't then you're just measuring the fraction of the population that drives (which is largely a reflection of wealth and demographics) which isn't really a measurement of the safeness of the roads and driving.
- scoofy 4y agoWe’re talking about people killed trying to move around the place they live. Butt-in-seat hours is a fine way to measure automobile vs automobile stats, but when we’re talking about deaths from transportation, counting only automobile hours is silly. There are various ways to get around a city, and the way you do that hardly matters if it suits the purposes of that trip.
