Forums → The Tavern → Is a plane more dangerous than a car?

I agree. dont you guys remember 9/11? dont you remember when the towers fell? a car could never cause 9/11.

a car theft happens at least once every single day?

God did not mean for man to fly. If he did we would have wings. Planes fall out of the sky. Why. There is nothign holding them up.

Thoad, behave. Go troll the deviants.

has there ever ben a car crash that has killed 600 people?

yes it very is it can kill over 500 people

Well, Mythbusters tells us that the worst that a passanger can do in a plane (without blowing up) is break their legs) The worst in a car is always death. I view planes as a safer option.

Just one question: how many cars do you see falling from 3000fts. ?

Cars kill way more people then planes each year.

i think planes are safer because you dont have to watch out for a bunch of other people... (along with the idiots that think there cool and drive fast).

This is all true, planes are safer

Like I said long ago, because cars outnumber planes significantly and because they are more accessible, cars cause more deaths overall as shown in statistics. Comparing single incidents though, planes usually kill more.

From the statistics, planes are safer. However, when you're in the heat of the moment, about to crash and you know it, the "safety" is just a lie.

if your two seconds from crashing a car you think OH CRAP. but if your two seconds from crashing a plane, you think "im dead"

this is because if you crash a car you may likely live, if you crash a plane you will probably die.

Cars are actually more dangerous. The road toll is increasing each day. You don't hear much about plane crashes . Not too long ago we had that Qantas Plane incident where somehow there was a massive hole in the airplane when it landed.

Here is one of the Qantas plane incidents

This is the one with the hole

Heres another Article

And this was what happened....



I am never going on a Qantas plane again.

Thats only because there are more cars on the road than planes in the sky, not to mention the number of idiots with drivers licenses. I would bet that if it were as hard to get a drivers license as it was to get a pilot license planes would kill more people.
