How is the risk of dying in a car accident proof of anyone's driving ability? Passengers die in car wrecks too!

Read the article:
"Male drivers have a 77 percent higher risk of dying in a car accident than women, based on miles driven."

As previously mentioned, other factors like drunk driving, aggressiveness, type of vehicle driven and so forth play a much larger role in the death rate.
