Ah, statistics, how revealing...of what? The obvious! When put in context, we should not surprised that car accidents are the leading cause of injuries to teens, or anyone else. After all, driving a car is the riskiest activity that most of us engage in with any regularity (outside of some hazardous occupations) It also seems logical to me that New Year's Eve would be the riskiest night to be driving (did we expect it to be in the middle of day on the third Thursday in May??)
I take comfort in the fact that it IS driving that has the greatest risk for most of us, and that it IS New Years Eve that's the riskiest night to be driving - forewarned is forearmed!
What I would find truly alarming would be something like "the leading cause of injury and death among otherwise healthy individuals is exploding water balloons on July 4th"
