Young + Male is a great way to increase your car insurance [1]. I think it's safe to say car insurance's cost is reflective of risk (cost) with a more serious accident costing more than a less serious.

CDC also states that men get into fatal accidents much more often (2x) than females [2].

No, that says "motor vehicle death rate for male drivers aged 16–19 was over two times higher than the death rate for female drivers of the same age".

You're rehashing the above conditional probability discussion.
