The article investigates the correlation between Friday the 13th and increased car accidents. Multiple studies with conflicting results are examined, some showing increased accident rates on Friday the 13th, while others find no significant difference or even a decrease. Cultural and psychological factors, such as friggatriskaidekaphobia, are explored as potential contributors to any observed increases. Insurance company data also provides mixed results, further highlighting the inconclusive nature of the relationship. Ultimately, the article concludes that while the superstition is widespread, more research is needed to definitively determine the connection between Friday the 13th and traffic accidents.
