Annual rate of each is what matters, not chance per crossing. Your crossing numbers have no real relevance to what is being discussed. See Merrick1's post for the actual numbers here.My statistics are definitely comparable and I was speaking about the annual rate of each as you stated. I agree with the 1 in a million chance in a year of getting struck by lightning. Here is what I said again: "If we assume that those odds are the same in New York City, we then have to compare the number of safe street crossings versus the number of crossings that result in injury or death in a year. Including visitors, there are about 14 million people in New York City everyday. If each person crosses the street only twice, that is 28 million crossings per day. If we multiply that by 300, we have at least 8,400,000,000 crossings per year. So there would have to be more than 8,400 injuries and deaths per year for your chances of getting hurt crossing the street to be greater than being struck by lightning. The number of annual pedestrian deaths in NYC are under 200 with about another 1200 injuries. So your chances of getting struck by lighting is roughly eight times greater than getting hurt or killed crossing the street in NYC, and that number doubles if each person crosses an average of four streets instead of two every day." Just because you say those statistics are not comparable, does not make it true. It is eight times more likely that you will get struck by lightning than be killed crossing the street. That takes the annual statistics of both and extrapolates it to your chances of getting killed crossing the street by comparing it vs the chance of getting struck by lightning. Perfectly valid comparison. |

Guess you haven't checked out DOT's latest report on the results from their newly installed bus lanes north of Metropolitan. It shows average traffic speeds dropped from 19.5 to 12 mph during the AM peak northbound, a 38 percent decrease.Which is 1.38 extra minutes in traffic over the area studied, Furmanville Avenue to Metropolitan Avenue. Extrapolated over the length of the bus lanes, it's a whopping three minutes. And that's without traffic signal improvements. It shows that bus speeds also declined slightly since the lanes were installed. Due to cars in the bus lane, according to Slide 44. |

You have the real numbers of how many safe street crossings occur every day or year? Please share them with us. Or are you saying the number of safe crossings do not matter and only the ones where pedestrians are injured or killed count?Wrong. They are both important to ascertain how dangerous the streets really are. I was not using any I imaginary numbers. I was actually being very conservative by assuming the average pedestrian crosses only four intersections a day. In reality the number is far higher. And how do real numbers prove me wrong? You made a statement so back it up. |

"You have the real numbers of how many safe street crossings occur every day or year? Please share them with us."No. I never said I did. "Or are you saying the number of safe crossings do not matter and only the ones where pedestrians are injured or killed count?" Correct. They are wholly irrelevant if you are comparing incidence rate of automobile-pedestrian incidents to lightning strikes. "Wrong." No. Such is not wrong. "They are both important to ascertain how dangerous the streets really are." Correct! But you were not talking about how likely it is to hit when one crosses the street. You were comparing it to getting struck by lightning! For which such is absolutely useless in a comparison! "I was not using any I imaginary numbers." You were not using square roots of negative numbers, correct. You were using made up numbers. "I was actually being very conservative by assuming the average pedestrian crosses only four intersections a day. In reality the number is far higher." YES YOU WERE! In general crossing the street is MUCH safer than your estimate showed on a per exposure basis. BUT YOU WERE COMPARING IT TO LIGHTNING STRIKES WHICH AREN'T BEING CONSIDERED ON A PER EXPOSURE BASIS. Say one spends 50 hours of the year crossing the streets and potentially being hit by cars. They are spending 8766 hours of the year being potentially hit by lightning! "And how do real numbers prove me wrong? You made a statement so back it up." I already did. To quote Merrick's better numbers than mine: Number of people treated for vehicle-pedestrian collisions: 150,000 Number of people treated for lightning strikes: 297. Getting hit by a car crossing the street is not less likely. Not even just more likely. Not even just a lot more likely. FIVE HUNDRED TIMES MORE FUCKING LIKELY. And that is without considering the exposure difference that you were trying to bring in, which would shift it substantially against your argument, as you were only considering exposure for automobile accidents and not lightning. |
