how many car deaths in the us each year?
the number of car fatalities in the us each year is around 35,000.
this means that roughly 1 out of every 8 million miles or 712 years on average can be expected to cause a fatality. this is incredibly low compared to other modes of transportation and reflects the high safety standards for vehicles worldwide. however it's worth noting that any death on our roads is one too many and we should strive to not only lower this numbers but to work towards zero casualties at all costs; driver education; better driver training; safer driving habits; better road design and an end-to-end solution will help do just that!
