I'd like to know how we're doing vs national averages. We've had a few threads talking about accidents and I think there's enough data in this club to compare. What I'd like to do is update this thread at the end of every year and see how we stack up. Answer these completely, I'll average it all and report.
Please take a few minutes to go over whatever records/pictures you have. Figure out some reasonable "miles driven" figure. Street miles. Car=truck. Any moving accident/contact, while you were driving, regardless of fault, should be added to the accidents field. If an accident resulted in your injury, injury being something that cost $ or lasted for a few days, that counts in both the accident and injury fields. If the accident resulted in your death, do not feel obligated to respond.
I'm going to assume everyone started driving at age 16 unless otherwise noted (Goodspeed!). I may or may not decide to ignore such outliers.
Age: 29
Car miles driven: 198000
Car accidents: 5
Car injuries: 1
Bike miles driven: 1000
Bike accidents: 0
Bike injuries: 0
