Default 42,000 Auto Fatalities per Year

Following Mr. Hall's logic...

With an average of approximatley 42,000 auto fatalities per year I suggest we stop travelling in ground based vehicles.

FARS Encyclopedia

Between the Aug. '06 Comair accident and the Feb. '09 Colgan accident not one passenger died in an aircraft accident in the United States. During this period approximately 105,000 people were killed on America's roads.

That's 115 per day...more than one human being every 15 minutes. That's just the fatalities not the permanently maimed.

Don't drink and drive...
Wear your seatbelts my freinds...
