What else can I help you with?
Was the rate of alcohol involvement among drivers involved in fatal collisions four times higher in the day time?
No, the rate of alcohol involvement among drivers in fatal collisions is generally higher during nighttime hours compared to daytime. Studies typically show that a significant proportion of fatal crashes linked to alcohol occur after dark, reflecting the increased risks associated with nighttime driving and alcohol consumption. While daytime collisions can involve alcohol, the prevalence tends to be lower than during the night.
What brain injuries are most likely to be fatal?
Damage to the cerebral cortex is least likely to be fatal; damage to the medulla is most likely to be fatal.
What percent of body water loss is death a result?
Loss of 15-25% of body water can be fatal. This extreme dehydration can lead to organ failure and death. It is essential to maintain proper hydration levels to prevent this severe outcome.
Inhalation of which gas is fatal?
Inhalation of high concentrations of carbon monoxide (CO) can be fatal as it prevents oxygen from binding to hemoglobin in red blood cells, causing tissue hypoxia. Other gases that can be fatal in high concentrations include hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, and chlorine.
Would the radiation from a nuclear reactor be fatal?
The radiation from a properly functioning nuclear power reactor is heavily shielded and cannot be approached close enough to be fatal. Radiation from damaged or malfunctioning nuclear power plants can be, and has been, fatal. The nuclear reactor incident at Chernobyl is one example. Nuclear reactor failures aboard ships and submarines also prove fatal but are often hidden behind national security; submarine K-19 'the widowmaker' was one such example. And of course, if one were to get into the reactor room past all of the shielding, any reactor would be fatal.
What percent of fatal collisions occurr on roads with posted speedlimits of 55mph or more?
