BlueEyedMonster 0 #7 July 8, 2003 ahhhh I hate numbers... But here is what you need. 44599 fatalities in 1990 (year of your other stats) According to the MADD statistics. In 1994, U.S. residential vehicles traveled 1,793 billion miles (I am sure commercial fatalities are negligable) but there is a 2.9% growth rate each year... so you can figure back to 1990 and get your numbers. http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/rtecs/chapter3.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I seem to remember from looking up those previous stats, that talking on the cell phone was the second riskiest behavior behind drinking alcohol.
