The key word is "untimely". From 15 to 35 motor vehicles are the
single largest cause of death; furthermore they are obviously strongly
represented in causes of death amongst nearby age groups, whose other
causes of death tend to vary. Sure, diseases of the elderly kill many
more people, but if you're wondering what makes people die young, look
at the roads.

... this is of course totally neglecting secondary effects like
respiratory conditions, to boot.
