I remember seeing some statistics on traffic accidents from a swedish government department. And here it is (sadly all in Swedish):

http://www.socialstyrelsen.se/NR/rdonlyres/2B5A6B25-2026-470...

Page 51-51 has graphs of fatalities ages 1-15 years.

Page 71-72 has graphs of fatalities ages 16-24 years.

Page 117 has graphs of fatalities ages 25-44 and 45-64 years.

The green area labelled "Fordonsolyckor" are those that are traffic accidents.

Summary: At young ages, traffic accidents are a large part of all deaths, but after 45 years of age, the reason of death is dominated by cardio-vascular diseases.
