[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The streets are actually quite safe. You're *far* more likely to be murdered in D.C. than be killed in a traffic accident. [/quote] A total lie[/quote] It is true that more people were murdered in DC last year (227) https://dcwitness.org/data-shows-more-homicides-occurred-in-2021-than-previous-years/ than killed in traffic accidents (40) https://mpdc.dc.gov/page/traffic-fatalities. However, there are certain situations that put people at significantly higher risk for dying in either of these ways, and some of the risk factors for homicide are probably easier for the average DCUM reader to avoid than the risk factors for traffic crashes.[/quote]
