I just spotted this cool graphic that National
Geographic produced a while back. It shows the chances of dying of
various different diseases (the big red line represents the chances of
dying of something (1 in 1) and the smaller circles represent your
chances of dying of particular ailments. I would like to call attention
to the 4th circle. That's right, motor vehicle accidents. It's worth
noting that pedestrian and motorcycle accidents are not included in
that (though they are also, technically, motor vehicle accidents) and
they come in at number 8 and number 10 repsectively.
So, there you have it. If you don't stop driving...it will kill you...so stop. Video games are more fun, and much less dangerous (people dying of video games doesn't even make the list, and, with the Wii, you might actually get a workout!)
