There's an estimated forty two thousand people in the us who died in motor vehicle crashes. The amount of travel was 13 % fewer miles travelled, so this eight % increase in deaths is really more like a 24 % increase if you look at per mile's travel ad i think what's happened is that with so much less traffic, there are more people driving really fast and recklessly. I came out of this scary, near tragic event not even thinking about the lingering consequences of the fear and the negativity,. only reaching for like, hey, this is going to turn into a positive for me. So i guess i'm just a little greedy, is what i am.
Also: why are we so bad at assessing risk?
