Reasons why women are 73% more likely to get seriously injured in car accidents.
The automotive industry has long focused on designing cars primarily with men in mind, as highlighted by René Jay in a recent TikTok post. Jay humorously but soberly points out that this bias not only affects comfort levels but also poses serious safety risks for women on the road. He notes that women are statistically more likely to sustain serious injuries or die in car crashes due to design flaws in safety features tailored to male bodies. For instance, crash test dummies used to assess vehicle safety were historically based on male physiology, neglecting key anatomical differences such as spinal shape and neck strength in women. Jay emphasizes that this oversight extends to seatbelts, airbags, and even car sizes, all of which can contribute to the increased danger women face on the road. The video resonated with viewers, many of whom commended Jay for bringing attention to an issue that has long been overlooked in the automotive industry.
