Regardless of the margin of error my general point is that the chances of dying on a motorcycle in VA are not as alarming as people are making it seem.
That is why I said I didn't want to argue with you, I don't think it is as bad either. I just didn't want people going around trying to spew off facts that were based off very limited data.
