I take issue with some reporter diagnosing the cause of an accident with zero knowledge. An accident investigator would never make a snap statement as to the cause of the accident.
The statistics are weighted according to miles driven so they are relevant.
I could have written it clearer but it makes sense. Seniors have a very low rate of accidents per mile. Many of those accidents are the result of a medical event such as a TIA or MI.
