That’s for passengers in a vehicle. Pedestrian deaths are at a 40 year high with no signs of that growth slowing.

    Could you please stop posting unsubstantive comments and flamebait? You've unfortunately been doing it repeatedly. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for. If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.

      I'll take that as a "it's not per capita, I'm just bad at math" Why is anything remotely not-far-left somehow flamebait? How about you get a little perspective and then come back to me. I have every right to be equally confident in my position as anyone else. Moreso in fact because I'm actually correct. Misinformation about motor vehicles is harmful and needs to be refuted with fervor at least equal to that of the misinformation purveyor. Otherwise rational thinking dies. Surely you appreciate this fact.

        > anything remotely not-far-left somehow flamebait? That's an illusion. People always assume that the site and/or the mods are biased against them. The other side feels exactly the same way. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26148870 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26148870 https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&query=%22always%20feels%22%20mods%20by%3Adang&sort=byDate&type=comment https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...
