Question 1 - Teen Deaths Traffic accidents are the leading cause of death among people aged 15 to 20. In May 2002, the National
Highway Safety Administration reported that even though only 6.8%of licensed drivers are between 15
and 20 years old, they were involved in 14.3% of all fata crashes. Insurance companies have long known
that teenage boys were high risks, but what about teenage girls? One insurance company found that the

the accident rate is lower for girls than for teens in general?
