[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]12,000,000 total vehicle accidents every year - car & truck. 
6,000,000 car accidents every year. 
38,000 people die from car accidents every year. 
6,500 pedestrians die from car accidents every year.

Nobody even died in this one. [/quote]

You're working pretty hard to make us think this was nothing. It wasn't nothing. It's a big deal.[/quote]

No more than thousands of actually-fatal accidents.

Fatalities are not the only measure of importance. This car slammed through the wall of a restaurant/bar where people were peacefully sitting, then burst into flames. To shrug and say, "eh, no one died" is crazy.

If an airplane successfully makes an emergency landing on a highway, it's news, even if no one dies. We hear all about it -- who the pilot was, what the issues with the plane were, ETC!!!![/quote]

And then we demand planes fly slower, and not near populated areas? Do we even need planes? [/quote]
