Which is more dangerous: Combat in Iraq or US traffic?
Each year more people are killed in US traffic accidents than killed in the entire Iraq war effort. How many more? A lot more. These statistics don’t lie:
American deaths in Iraq since the war began:
4217+
Traffic fatalities in US for 2006 – one year (not including pedestrians):
36,000+
