One of the consequences of such notions as "entitlements" is that people who have contributed nothing to society feel that society owes them something, apparently just for being nice enough to grace us with their presence.”

huh........more drivers involved than Traffic crashes

10-06-2005 09:34 AM #8Last I checked, a traffic crash usually involves two cars, and normally there has to be a driver in each one. I'd guess the number isn't an exact double because there are some fucksticks who hit parked cars, light poles, dumpsters, etc... You fucktard.

It would be more accurate if it were in a ratio, like every 1/1,000 pedestrian gets killed a year, and 50/1,000 biker gets killed a year.

8084 - 7551 - 504 = 29 pedestrian crashes without injury. Does that even count as a crash? LoL..., oh my stomach hurts....

if you get into a crash on a motorcycle: 19% chance your dying
if you get into a crash walking down the street: 16% chance your dying
if you get into a crash on a bicycle: 43%! chance your dyingblah blah blah
