Question:
Boating safety. Data on accidents in recreational boating in the Statistical Abstract of the United States show that the number of deaths has dropped from 1360 in 1980 to 676 in 2004. However, the number of injuries reported grew from 2650 in 1980 to 3363 in 2004. Why are there so few deaths in these government data relative to the number of injuries? Which count (deaths or injuries)
is probably more accurate? Why might the injury count rise when deaths do not?
