The correct source is: The Economic and Societal Impact of Motor Vehicle Crashes
https://crashstats.nhtsa.dot.gov/Api/Public/ViewPublication/... Note that these numbers are made up to a certain degree, much more so than the restaurant industry numbers, and so they are not necessarily comparable. The NHTSA puts the value of one life at $8.86 million (in 2010 dollars) [p. 114 of the report]. For 40,000 deaths, that's already $354 billion. They then add other costs, too, which are also hard or impossible to measure. |
