Actually, the death in terms of highway miles over all roads in France and
Germany is about double that of USA and UK. I believe the figures (dredged
from my memory of an article in the Economist last summer) are something
like this:
		USA	2.1
		UK	2.4
		Germany	4.0
		France	4.5

figures are for deaths per 100 thousand highway miles per year.  Don't
take the units too seriously - it could be 100 million...
