    Without normalizing for the number of these vehicles on the road this data is not meaningful. No matter how much I appreciate the depiction of cars as murder machines.

    There were zero children killed by Titan submarines in the last twenty years, we should clearly take inspiration from this beacon of safety!

      Thank you! Simply attacking a mode without weighing the number of users using that mode gives us a chart that shows the most-used mode.

      Similar to a map of heart attack deaths that shows most happen in New York, California, and Texas.

      Also splitting cars in group like SUVs, pickup trucks and small cars is important when it comes to murder on the road

      A child runs out from behind a car directly into the path of Usain Bolt thus replicating the opening scene of The Boys.

      Edit: Actually I misremembered, the opening scene is Homelander and Maeve. I’m talking Hughie’s girlfriend having a run in with A-Train.

      Probably the child bump into an adult, fell to the ground and hit his/her skull too hard.

    There was a death from a child colliding with another child? Am I reading that correctly?

      You are not.

      A child died from a collision with a pedestrian, but the age of the pedestrian is unspecified.

      I would look up the source of this chart and then look at their source data

    No one died on a school bus ever? Hard to believe.

      It’s data from the EU, school busses are less common here. Also, there are 3 deaths for children in busses in het last column.
