The quote is from an ambulance chaser site…
According to the National Safety Council (NSC), an American’s lifetime odds of dying in a car crash are 1 in 107 as of 2019.
Wow, that’s alot higher than I’d have expected. Weird how automobile deaths are totally normalized in this country.

I saw the stat in a unsourced tweet so I had to google it. I couldn’t quite believe it. I knew the stat was high but I just couldn’t quite accept that it was that high. I thought whoever gave the stat screwed up and maybe the real number was something like 1 in 307.
Rant: Unsourced stuff really annoys me.
Good on you for double checking and being skeptical though, so much easier to just hard code that shit into your brain as a new fact
