Questions
FAQ
Is Egypt or Morocco safer for driving?
Egypt — its WHO-estimated death rate of 9.9 per 100,000 people is 2x lower than Morocco's 19.9. Absolute tolls differ with population: Egypt loses an estimated 11,157 people per year, Morocco 7,522.
Why compare per 100,000 instead of total deaths?
Total deaths mostly measure population size. Deaths per 100,000 people measures actual risk to an individual road user, which is what matters when comparing two countries — and what the WHO uses for exactly this reason.
