Let's take a look at a few statistics regarding traffic accidents online:

Nearly 30,000 people died in traffic accidents nationwide in the first half of the year (Source: Xinhua News)

China has 1.9% of the world's automobiles, yet traffic-related fatalities account for 15% globally (Source: Shuozhou City Work Safety Supervision Network) (This statement is similar to "China feeds 22% of the world's population with 7% of the world's arable land.")

Based on these statistics, it means that 60,000 people in China cannot return home for dinner every year!
