The trauma surgeons say 86% of the deaths are women, despite the fact that more men ride bikes than women. From that statistic they conclude we should jump red lights.

What percent of riders who avoid any accident at all are women?

Suppose men get into lots and lots of minor accidents and women either have fatal accidents or no accident at all.

I believe the statistics are too incomplete to draw any conclusions about safe riding behaviors.
