Default The interesting stat!!!

The fact that Audi A4 Quattro drivers have higher collision losses than non-Quattro drivers.

Possible reasons:
1) This is not per-capita data and means that because there are more Quattros out there, there are more accidents

2) Quattro drivers are more aggressive than non-Quattro drivers because they think that Quattro will save them no matter what they do.

3) Repairing Quattro vehicles is more expensive than repairing non-Quattros.

Opinions?
