People love to over exaggerate
The offical police statistics for 2008:
105 accidents on track during public days attended by police
1 death
77 bodily injuries (55 were motorcyclists, 1 death, 23 seriously injured)
98 cars
77 motorcylces
79/105 happened at the weekend
Obviously there are many more accidents that police do not attend but these are 'minor' and certainly not life threatening. There are more deaths on the local roads than on the Nordschleife.
