Yes it does that's exactly how probability theory works.
The probability of being killed in a plane crash per trip that you take is total deaths / total trips over a period of time.
Similarly the probability of being killed in a car ride is defined the same way.
Of course the devil is in...
Why do we need many thousands of years of planes taking off? Why can't we just take the last 10 years of plane trips vs car trips and compare the death toll based upon available statistics from websites like statista.com ?
? I just compare the number of plane trips vs the number of car trips that occur daily and use the accident and death statistics to work out the percentages.
I just did the math too.
Here's what I found when comparing probabilities:
Flying (Commercial Airlines): The risk of death is approximately 0.000009% per trip (1 in 11 million flights, based on global aviation data).
Cars: The risk of death is approximately 0.0001% to 0.001% per trip (1 in...
Ever since Merc and Chrysler got into bed with each other Merc has turned even more shitty. The relationship may have ended up the shit remains.
Yes BMWs are far more reliable nowadays.
