Death rates due to accidents charted by age and gender

Charted by /u/draypresct at Reddit, this shows the death rates due to unintentional injuries by age for men and women.

Data from the CDC National Vital Statistics System. Cause of death methodology and other data descriptions here: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/mortality/lcwk1_hr.htm edit: I used Microsoft Excel to make the graph. The data I used were the tables that included all races and ethnicities.

I'm surprised that teenage boys appear to suffer less accidents than adult men of any subsequent age.
