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.
