Wow. I have no idea... it sounds pretty wild, if that's the statistic in
Sweden then I'm afraid what Norway has :) But then Swedes are known for
their safe cars and proper conduct :-) Seriously, I am as puzzled as you! I
used to know someone's mother colliding with a moose once (it ran off but
made a massive dent!) about 15 years ago, whereas my own family are more
used to crashing into mountains and other cars... Maybe someone in Sweden
could tell if this is a joke or not....??
