ROAD ACCIDENTS AND LUNAR PHASES

INCIDENTI STRADALI E FASI LUNARI

An attempt is made to correlate the incidence of road accidents with the influence of the phases of the moon. Despite the apparent frivolity of the subject, the conclusions from a scientific analysis of accident data lead to the reflection that there is an indirect link between drivers' behaviour and the moon.
