Actuary Mary Pat Campbell drew up this graph from age-adjusted CDC traffic fatality data showing that until the racial reckoning, the sex gap in dying on the roads was much greater than the race gap. You can see the Ferguson Effect in 2015-16 and the Floyd Effect in 2020.
Note that this is not per mile driven, but per person. My guess would be that whites drive a lot more than blacks per person, what with long commutes and being more rural.
