For instance, a 30 year old could survive a crash in which they were the driver in a single car accident where his 60 year old mother was killed. Add one to the 60-69 box.
I would also consider that a 20 year old could probably endure more trauma and survive an accident that perhaps someone in the 50+ range would not.
I'd prefer to see figures that break down ages of at fault drivers. This is a small sample size and doesn't actually appear to measure anything other than ages of people involved in a fatality which wasn't necessarily the driver.
