Note: Update March 2010. In the year since this podcast was released we have had a constant deluge of mass shootings in the USA and terrorist killings all over the world. And yes, carnage on the road.
There were 34,247 fatal motor vehicle crashes in the United States in 2017 in which 37,133 deaths occurred.

- 34% of fatal crashes occur in major cities
- 1 in 10 crashes resulted in multiple deaths
