Reply to comment by CesarMdezMnz in [OC] All-Time Deadliest Accidents and Disasters vs. One Year of Traffic Deaths by databeautifier
It's not though. That's also what I thought at first. It compares one year of traffic deaths vs. the single deadliest event of each other disaster. So the single worst plane crash, or single worst flood. It's a confusing comparison.

Yeah, but not a single traffic accident makes it to the news when it happens, like an aeroplane crash or a natural disaster.
However, more people die in traffic every year than in any other accident/disasters combined together over time.
