I don't really care what you think....it's based on having driven in Canada for 50+ years and various parts of Europe for 40 years. I think the myth better Euro drivers is just that ....a myth. They may have more agile cars and perhaps fewer running wrecks on the road due to tighter inspections .....and I certainly can't speak for Italy where I simply would not drive as from others experience it would make Brampton look like a orderly parade. But the accident rate in Europe is high - and fatality rate far higher.
Europe as a whole has 9.3 fatalities per year per 100,000 inhabititants. and 12.9 per 100,000 vehicles.
Canada has 6 and 9.5
Australia 5.4 and 7.3
United States by comparison is 10.6 and 12.9 per 100,000 vehicles.
Australian experience is only recently and they've clamped on on all sorts of hooligan and poor driving with strict traffic control and very strict graduated licencing and alcohol control.
Your comment on emu and crocodile shows how shallow your knowledge is.
Yet some European countries are outstanding
Germany 4.3 and 6.8
France 6.1 and 7.6
My guess is that the rates reflect more on the quality of the roads and the condition of the vehicles on them in conjunction with the level of driver training/graduated licencing programs than the overall ability of the drivers.
I'll re-iterate ...I don't find any significant differences driving in Western Europe and Canada or Australia and the statistics bear me out.
