- “Person injured in unspecified motor-vehicle accident, traffic” is the 50th leading cause of death at 0.4% of deaths.
- “Person injured in collision between other specified motor vehicles (traffic)” is the 108th leading cause of death at 0.2% of deaths.
- garrettjoecox 1y agoWas your intent to disprove or back up the claims of parent? 0.4% and 0.2% sound low, but make up for ~110,000 deaths. Spread across a 5 year period does indeed equal “tens of thousands” every year.
- Lammy 1y agoMy intent was to have some real data. Do you only write comments to persuade others? Form your own opinion, because now you have data to inform one.

- ahahahahah 1y agoIt sounds like you are refuting the parent's claim. But those two categories add up to ~110,000 deaths over a 6 year period, which seems like can be reasonably described as 10000s per year. But, more importantly, you missed a bunch of relevant categories: V89.2 (Person injured in unspecified motor-vehicle accident, traffic) 80,434 V87.7 (Person injured in collision between other specified motor vehicles (traffic)) 29,982 V09.2 (Pedestrian injured in traffic accident involving other and unspecified motor vehicles) 27,934 V03.1 (Pedestrian injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van, traffic accident) 15,129 V43.5 (Car occupant injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van, driver injured in traffic accident) 9,810 V29.9 (Motorcycle rider [any] injured in unspecified traffic accident) 8,410 V29.4 (Driver injured in collision with other and unspecified motor vehicles in traffic accident) 7,688 V47.5 (Car occupant injured in collision with fixed or stationary object, driver injured in traffic accident) 6,379 V49.9 (Car occupant [any] injured in unspecified traffic accident) 6,349 V23.4 (Motorcycle rider injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van, driver injured in traffic accident) 5,851 V43.6 (Car occupant injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van, passenger injured in traffic accident) 3,728 V27.4 (Motorcycle rider injured in collision with fixed or stationary object, driver injured in traffic accident) 3,504
