Is it possible to cause a car fatal accident (for driver and/or passengers) in densely populated Manhattan? Scary.
More vehicle malfunction and backing up deaths than elsewhere in the country, there's some highways that run through it and then of course alcohol and other intoxicants.
It's crazy how dangerous these things are. NYC is big and it looks like in Manhattan it is a little rarer but 100K accidents in a year that were reported is bonkers.
Jesus Christ I was just comparing NY to London for the same stats. Over 4x fewer accidents (23,000 per year) in London despite the same population
That's some seriously, seriously shitty driving when you consider Londoners are by far the worst drivers in the UK
If your country's driving test basically involves pulling up to a fast-food drive thru and berating the minimum wage workers for forgetting your mayo, it's definitely possible
