      And after reading report for 2022 it seems this includes killed pedestriands. And pedestrians get American-reversaled and for some reason appear to die less, which is very wierd.

      Maybe pedestrian death only counted if pedestrian dies right there right then, but not later somewhere else? Maybe a lot of deaths were not included for some other reason? Maybe this report only includes deaths on highways, but not on roads in cities? Or maybe America so backwards country, that indeed everyone is in car and die in car?

      Reading more…

      Edit: fun fact, in rural areas more people die in “light trucks” AKA Stupid Ugly Vehicles that in passenger cars.

      EDIT2: this report seems to include at least some roads in “urban area”. Not sure about all.
