Default Axle breaking question

So what side axles usually break (passenger/driver side)or is it an even split? Basically getting a grasp if one side is under more stress. Vote up what side broke on your setup.

i snapped my passenger side with an open diff. its the one that spins more for me. i can tell by the lack of tread on it and the larger amount of rubber slung down the side of my car

My tech andy says there is not enough wing in the back which takes the weight off the front...and your car's yellow paint is hard on axleshafts.

NAWWZZZZ FTW!!!!
