Not so unlucky 13

Is Friday the 13th really an unlucky day? Believe or not, someone went to the trouble of finding out!
Dutch statisticians have established that Friday 13th, a date regarded in many countries as inauspicious, is actually safer than an average Friday.
A study published today by the Dutch Centre for Insurance Statistics (CVS) showed that fewer accidents and reports of fire and theft occur when the 13th of the month falls on a Friday than on other Fridays.
That’s of course as long as you don’t live near Jason.
