358 crashes in a year is close enough to an average of one per day that it's pretty fucking pedantic to say "but not every day - especially given that most of the time that people say something happens "every day" it's being used loosely, not literally.
"People get shot by cops every day" is a phrase that is effectively accurate, even if nobody happened to be shot on, say, February 21st.

358 deaths due to crashes*, not the same as crashes themselves as multiple can die per crash

i came into this conversation with a light (pedantic) heart and an open mind. i am still willing to he corrected but cussing me out does nothing buddy.

Oh I wasn't trying to cuss you out, sorry if it came off that way. It's early and I usually filter out my language a bit before posting but I commonly use curse words for emphasis and stuff. I blame it on being a (former) sailor. And thanks, I may have misread that - that's what I get for commenting before I even had gotten out of bed.

You too! And this place could use a bit more chill for sure. People tend to forget the human on the other side of the conversation.

Man shot after fleeing police in high speed chase, shooting K9 on February 21st

[–] JustAnotherRando@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Fair enough. I figured if I threw a random date out, there was like a 99.99% chance that somebody was shot on that day.

[–] dditty@lemm.ee 2 points 6 months ago

Yeah I saw the date and was like "challenge accepted" lol
