Ian 30th August 2010	Please put up facts like over such and such a speed only 10% live. Or, under 80 mph, 90% live with seatbelt. There are some point-of-no-return speeds.
Amy+Becker 25th August 2010	Is there any listing to see how many males die in auto accidents compared to females? I have heard that three times as many teenage males die as to teenage girls and that this difference tends to go throughout life although it does tamper off two twice as many males as women. If this is true, this would show that males are not better drivers as they claim.
César (Canada) 13th January 2007	Would like to know this statistic by cars owned, not by 100 000 people. Wondering if it is possible.
Brittanie 10th November 2005	Sixteen is too young of an age to start driving. Think it could be our kids out on the road the day some teenage boy or girl decide to act stupid and hit us and our child. We could be seriously damaged.
oliver 16th October 2005	Spain? Portugal?
Axel Boldt 12th September 2005	It would also be interesting to compare fatality rates relative to total miles driven in a country. If few people drive, then obviously you'll have a low fatality rate, but that doesn't mean that the drivers are any better.
A Paramedic 30th May 2005	Makes you wonder why we stopped using a horse and cart! Maybe it was to keep people like me busy at work?!
