I'm not claiming that there's not more deaths on the highway, that'd be crazy considering the highways span the entire country rather than the NYC metro area and also carry more people than the subways, so like, simply by raw numbers "duh."
Yeah 4.2 million miles compared to 248 miles? Again I'm required to say "duh."
Conversely, though I never claimed The Highways were paragons of safety, others claimed the Subway is, when in fact the crime is simply "back down to pre-pandemic levels" which is to say "very much still there, but better, sure."
So compare the deaths per mile traveled, per time travelled, per person who uses each as their main mode of transport, whichever metric you think would give a good representation of the relative risk of taking the subway versus driving on the highway

Good comic.
