article discussing the results of the Finnish Road Accident Investigation Teams (RAITs) on fMVAs in Finland during 2008-2009. 11% of these were because of “disease attack.”
Severe injuries may mask the role of an initial disease attack.
These articles make it seem like unless there’s careful investigation after the fact, it’s very difficult to know for sure if illness caused the accident.
So it probably is a daily occurance, depending on how many fatal accidents happen in your country. (and depending on a million other factors, most likely)
I wonder if it’s one of those kinds of deaths that just makes the local paper unless they take out a lot of people with them.
