2.The average household owns 2 cars, trucks or SUVs.
3.One in four households own 3 or more vehicles.
4.220 million adults spend 1.5 hours per day driving.
5.Americans drive an average of 17,600 minutes each year.
6.The U.S. has paved enough roads to circle the earth 150 times.
Do you have any questions about driving in the U.S. or how to get the vehicle you need? We’re here to help.

The reason this is news-worthy is that the driver died. I have seen the same boiler-plate news report most weeks since I moved to NC in 2003.
I presume there are about ten non-fatal accidents for every fatal one.
A former coworker who had been a cop in Florida comfired that the news reports in Florida are prrttg much the same but substituted "tree" with ditch/pond/creek/random body of water. The result however was the same.

I understand you market to new expats, but do you have deals for established expats, that would beat the latest local dealer offer?
