- occz 2y agoThat's part of the problem.
- thih9 2y agoPer capita passenger mileage is 2x lower in Germany vs US[1]; it looks like this accounts for just ~half of the difference - and there are other factors responsible for increased mortality.

- stefan_ 2y agoOther factors indeed, like population density - I assume you won't like correcting for that.
- thih9 2y agoOn the contrary, please show how you would correct for that, ideally with sources.
- bitcharmer 2y agoWhy would you assume that?
- lucianbr 2y agoOnly ~1.8x as a function of kms driven. Still significantly better. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_traffic-related_death_rate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_traffic-r...
