United Kingdom - 5.1, Germany - 6.8, Australia - 7.3 and the United States - 12.9. No, these are not the increases in the Gross National Product of these counties but rather the number of traffic fatalities per 100,000 vehicles. Shocking.
In the US, there are 12.9 fatalities for every 100,000 vehicles on the road. When you multiply that by the number of vehicles in the country, you end up with 40,000 deaths, about the size of a small town in Kenya.
In Kenya, the total number of people killed as a result of road accidents is much more modest. We only kill a little over 3,000 people per year.
