    Does that include the fact that Europe has more than twice the population of the US? So road fatalities are actually 4x if you calculate per person?

        I must be blind, I don’t see it. Is it a part of the two pictures in the body of the post, or the referenced image? (The referenced image does not open for me.)

      Literally incorrect. It’s deaths by million residents. Why are people upvoting this.

        I’ve updated my comment to remove the question and provide the info Eq0 posted right away.

        P.S. It’s a tall order on the internet, but please - chill a bit! I was asking a question, I don’t even know how that can be “literally incorrect”. I guess I should know better than asking questions on aggro topics. The main referenced picture doesn’t open for me BTW, only the two images in the body of the post.

    No surprise if you look at the cars and how safe they are. Also driving tests to get a license in some states are a joke. So you git unsafe drivers in unsafe cars.

    The EU population is 450 million people with an average density of 106 people/km2. The US is 350 million at 33 people/km2.

    There are probably better metrics than straight density.
