Its only the people who die at the scene of the accident, if they die in hospital it doesnt count.

I'm sure the actual numbers are much higher. Just remember who is doing the reporting.

I understand.....any solid evidence behind that? well known or rumour ? Note, I was an advisor to APEC for 3 years up to last year and have good contacts at VN government and speak and write about product and consumer safety matters....although not traffic directly.
