In the past year I've observed that agressive driving seems to be the
norm now. More assholes, especially pickups using farm diesel
(black-foul-smelling-smoke). I been thinking of investing in a stash of
bumper stickers to stick on their trucks that says "shoot me please".

Its more probable though that ride sharing grew during that period and
the generation of party drinkers used it more as a matter of trend.
Drinking establishments being closed or otherwise inaccessible due to
the rona too probably playeda huge role, like the seeming
disappearance of flu.

During Covid, in Utah, there have been the highest rate of deaths
ever recorded due to car crashes.
Meanwhile, at approximately the same time another experiment was
running.
Late 2018 Utah lowered the blood alcohol level for driving from
.08 to .05%.
Many, including myself, figured that there would not be a
significant difference.
But I also commented at the time that this one will be easy to
prove or disprove.
Deaths and crashes linked to drunken driving dropped by 19.8%
since the law took effect. I think one could say that is
statistically significant. Glad I was wrong.
