    Is that 3 times more deadly per mile traveled, or for a given amount of time spent using stairs, or just total, for every one person killed by a car (as a pedestrian), 3 are slain by stairs?

      It’s the total numbers compared.

      So if you would get numbers per time or travelled distance, this would probably be even worse (>>3 times more deadly).

      Especially since the statistics are from Germany. We are enthusiastic public walkers.
