It's for the US, right? I'd have thought we'd have data for the gun violence in that age range, given how often schools get shot up.
It took a while, but the repeated questions eventually got me to double check and find the 5-14 year old group was misaligned. Edited the post with corrected graphs. 5-14 year olds are (relatively) protected from guns & cars, but there's no tween-killing machinery running rampant.
