They sold millions of Pintos. Sample size is important.
They included the guy who shot himself and then blew up the truck. That had nothing to do with the truck. That one death made up 20% of their fatalities.
The other 3 victims were all in the same vehicle, in the same crash, which means these 4 deaths were comprised of 2 incidents. Name another production car that hasn't had at least 2 collisions that resulted in a fire fatality.
Bad journalism is bad.
It's reported as the rate per 100,000 units. So that's accounted for.
Bad commenting is bad.
the total sample is between 0 and 34,000 across the past couple years. You are mixing up sample, 34,000 is actually a remarkably large sample size.
Maybe you dont understand clustering
do enlighten me then.
