Comment on Due to American politics I'm afraid of using high speed rail in Germany
the_beber@lemm.ee 1 day ago9 in 10 regional trains are „on time“. Only 2 in 3 long distance trains are „on time“.
„On time“ is 5 minute delay or less. Cancellations are excluded from the statistic.

They do this in Norway too… they say that 70 % of trains are “on time”, but don’t mention that only 80 % of trains leave the station at all in the first place, and that the 70 % on time disregards those.
Note: I’m not quite sure about the numbers, the concept is the point.
