when selecting your travel mode and evaluating safety statistics consider this...

we lost approx 300 airline passengers and 5,500 pedestrians to air crashes last week...that is close to our total for the year and it is an extraordinarily high number.

we are on track to lose 32,000-33,000 Americans in fatal motor vehicle accidents this year. add to that 5,000 pedestrians who will be killed by vehicles. these numbers are average.
