Chart of the Day: Against Traffic

Line chart illustrating the percentage of US deaths due to various modes of transportation

Contents

Today’s Chart of the Day is from CNN and shows the percentage of US deaths by transportation type. The article highlights that commercial flights are still the safest way to travel.  Note that flying is even safer than walking and that pedestrian deaths have gone up from 5% to 18% since 1980. 

As a side note, we teach our Boy Scouts to walk on the left side of the road “against traffic” so they can see the vehicle beforehand and have time to react.
