    The graph shows deaths. I’m sure there are quite a few more collisions that don’t end in death, but possibly severe and lasting disabilities. You don’t see a lot of subway cars colliding with other subway cars. I’m sure plenty of people run into buses though.

      Yeah, bus collisions tend to have a pretty low fatality rate as well. It seems more like OP just didn’t read the graph.

        No, he’s just saying deaths are big, but even bigger disparity is seen if you include non-fatal incidents.
