Re: Spins & Blame (statistics)

OK, here are some basic statistics from the DOT. They're available on
the web:

1997 fatalities nationwide: 1.7/100 million passenger miles.

1997 injuries nationwide: 134/100 million passenger miles.

I didn't look further. Obviously, there are lots more accidents in which
there is only property damage, but those statistics weren't supplied in
the basic informatino section.

I won't comment re any possible comparisons to Solo II accident rates.
Draw your own conclusions.
