Showing posts with the label highways

Have you noticed some bad driving lately on the roads?

Maybe if you are being honest with yourself, it even includes you! Since the Pandemic, something bizarre happened on highways across America, potentially the globe. We saw less people immediately on then. People had the roadways to themselves. It was their little dangerous chance to go over that yellow line. Or that white line. Habits got worse. With less "on the job" practice of driving, we reverted back each time we got behind a steering wheel. Finally when more cars hit the pothole-filled pavement, the results were in full bloom. Even during a pandemic, something strange was afoot: YES.. PEOPLE ARE DRIVING WORSE.. Horrifying data on U.S. motor vehicle fatalities (in a year with a lot less driving). 38,680 crash fatalities, up 7% from 2019, and: *Occupant ejections +20% *Unrestrained passengers +15% *Speeding-related +11% Chart: fatalities per miles traveled.. THE FULL REPORT IS HERE Read it and cringe!!
