Sandi Day might be making headlines

But the reality is ignored.
This is a post to the Oregonian blog:

As usual, the sensationalism has gotten the best of everyone commenting here.
Lets look at some facts, something that most people don't want to bother with.
The latest full statistics are for 2008.
In that year there were 37,261 traffic related deaths.
14,587 were passenger car involved.
10,764 were light truck involved deaths.
677 were large truck involved deaths.
67 were bus involved death.
The rest are unclassified.
While Sandi Day makes headlines, the real threat is completely acceptable apparently.
