A more realistic comparison is deaths per miles driven, not deaths per 100,000 inhabitants. A big country like ours and Canada has a lot more long distance driving per inhabitant than Sweden or the UK.
Deaths per billion KM driven:
Sweden 5.1
UK 5.7
Canada 8.2
USA 8.5
It is also interesting to note that most countries in the world have rates of deaths per 100,000 miles driven much higher than any of these countries.

"Agree we do travel greater distances; we consider 100 km to be a short distance and 1700 km drive and more not out of the question during vacations"
We are limited by trailer brake requirements, tongue
weight requirements, hitch class requirements, tire load ratings, tv to trailer
weight ratio requirements and more
Still see heavy trailers with out
brakes hooked up, no breakaway switch, too heavy of a tongue
weight for the setup, overloaded trailers and other items all summer long
P.S. see coalitions all the time still have never seen an in-person car or truck towing camper trailer coalition
