| Good catch, Hartley. I made a sophomoric mistake. Thank you for the correction! It is not a percentage figure at all, it is 2.1 deaths per 100,000 inhabitants. All the data is here: List of countries by traffic-related death rate. |
Yeah, I knew it couldn’t have been 2.1%, as that would be over 2.5 million deaths in a country the size of Japan, which would be big news. Anyway, glad you took my comment in good spirit.
