study published in The Lancet Public Health journal. In the 15-29 age group, road accidents share in the number of deaths of Indian men goes up to 17.7%, or almost 1 in 5. In comparison, road accidents account for 3.4% deaths among women aged 15-39 and 3.3% in women aged 15-29 — which could be attributable to a disproportionately large number of male drivers vis-a-vis women drivers.

• No respite: The Grim Reaper’s fondness for men on the road doesn’t seem to abate even as they age — with the death rate for males (number of deaths per 100,000 male population) increasing with advancing years. That could be explained due to several factors — chief among them being slower reflexes in older people.
  
  

• Getting cautious: The study also reveals that young women have become far more cautious on the road than men in the last nearly 30 years. The study, which compares data from 1990 and 2017, shows that while the share of road accident deaths among total deaths in the 15-39 age group for men has either increased or not reduced significantly, except in the 15-19 age group, which could be attributable to stricter enforcement of traffic laws which forbid anyone under 18 from driving, it has significantly reduced for women in the same age bracket.

This data should also show percentage of driving licence holders for both genders.. Here in UAE, Indians drive extremely slow, in the fastest lane.. and never watch in the back mirror and never leave their lane... except when police vehicle wants to cross.. And Indian women are even worst..

Even the Lancet has noticed the statistical abnormalities caused by these hidden ceasefire line casualties.

You have never seen a Saudi driver before. Search for it on Youtube, and you will get an idea. Nothing on this planet is dangerous as a Saudi driver.
