This sadly does not say anything because the kilometers driven is unknown in this statistic, right?
So it could be that female drivers do not drive that many kilometers compared to males, which results in less accidents.
Also, is this accidents total men / women? Then it would not even take into account, that there are significant more male riders.
- kelnos 1y agoGP didn't specify, but IIRC vehicle incident rates are usually specified in terms of distance driven/ridden, so the stats they were looking at may have already taken that into account.
- toyg 1y agoIn my experience the number of female riders is so small, that from a statistical point of view it becomes almost irrelevant. Women also tend to ride smaller bikes, for obvious reasons.
- Spooky23 1y agoThat’s the worst stat. By trip would be much better. Motorcyclists on average ride less than 3,000 miles a year, cars are 4-6x that. 90% of accidents are within 10 miles of the riders home.
- AndrewSwift 1y agoIt was deaths/km ridden.
- razemio 1y agoThis would be better. Still does not take into account bigger and smaller bikes. I find it extremely difficult to judge that. From my experience, you are absolutely right. Men seem to take higher risk and some of them the consequences.
