Rip Off

[Aerith's Knight]

I don't get why people are soiling over statistics. They really do show that young men suck ass at driving. I'm sure you are the exception of course.

Men are more than twice as likely to die in a car crash than women, consider the yearly statistics shown below. In fact, studies have shoiwn as many as 73 percent of all people killed in car accidents are male. Since record keeping began: male fatalities significantly outweigh female fatalities. However men and women do not drive the same number of miles under the same conditions- men do about 60-65% more driving than women. Studies show that woman take shorter trips and female drivers have a greater number of minor crashes than do men. However men are still 70% more likely to be in a serious crash.

Well done, you've managed to highlight the one part of that that slightly argues against what I said, whilst leaving the rest that completely agrees plain. Nice.

Also, Leeza, you should stop generalising. People would get less pissed at you if you said something like "All the men I see driving act like they own the road" rather than "All men act like they own the road".

The article merely says men are in less accidents, but die more.

You said statistics show men are worst drivers, but this shows that things are more complicated than that. If you were to look only at the number of accidents, not the severity, it would dispute the claim.

But if you were to look at who dies more, it would be men.

Nothing is black or white, there are only shades of gray.
