Well a car is more dangerous her in germany we have about 30000 accidents every year and just 5 with planes, but if a accident happens it is more likely that you die in a plane

thats in germany not the hole world

Does anyone remember 9/11?

That's all I have to say.

car crashes are far more common than plane crashes, so id say cars are more dangerous

Yeah, but most plane crashes are MUCH worse than your average car crash!

For example: see this:

A car crash or accident is more likely to happen but A plane crash is more deadly because of how many people are on and it has a bigger explosin radius. If I had to pick between the two on how I would die I would pick neither but a plane crash is better at least you wont have to endure pain as long as a in a car crash would last.

For me, yes
Coz airplane can crash any moment, and if it does, u have a small chance of surviving
While in cars, u have a bigger chance of surviving when u have an accident =P

planes are proppily safer but i fell safer in a car

No. They aren't.
you can crash almost anywhere in a car, but a plane... wait, nvm.. .T_T

i just fell safer know who the driver is

Statistically, cars kill more than planes.

However when comparing single incidents, crashing planes are more dangerous than cars because they harbor more people and because a crashing plane can potentially cause more damage to its surroundings.

So generally, cars are more dangerous than planes.

Well im not sure cause from the news and shyt...They both crash, they both brake down, and they both scary the shyt out of people...so im not very sure on which one is safer then the other.

How do airplanes even work and how come passengers aren't given parachutes?

They both have there ups and downs. I am too tired to post them all right now.

Depends on the driver or pilot. This topic has a lot of variables.
