How many automotive deaths are there per day in the us?
According to the NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration) in 2010 there were 23,303 highway traffic
fatalities for Drivers and Passengers. That would work out to about
64 deaths per day. If you factor into that Pedestrians and other
non-motorists and Motorcyclists that total jumps to 32,885, or 90
per day.
This is down from a total of 43,005 in 2002 which was an average
of 118 per day. These figures come from the NHTSA Web site.
