(1) The insurance company Hyperion has analyzed accident statistics and has found that there
are more insurance claims for accidents on January 8th than any other day. (2) Accidents are

them. (5) March 3rd was statistically the safest day, with only 89 reports. (6) Be careful on
January 8th – it’s officially the most dangerous day of the year. (7) Six of the ten worst days for
motoring were in January. (8)It’s obvious that icy and snowy conditions are dangerous, but
