Statistically speaking my chances of dying in a car in USA are zero... as I don't live there. However my chances of doing so in Thailand are much higher.

Thunglom Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Chances of dying at the wheel in a 4-wheeled vehicle (private, buses and commercial vehicles etc) in Thailand - about 8,9 per 100 population. In the USA – deaths per 100k in 4 wheeled (private only) = 10.6 - [Insurance Institute for Highway Safety] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
