Diesels built for racing do it to get more power. Other people do it because they think it’s cool. It’s their own fuel to waste, so while I do think it’s dumb I’m not going to get in a twist over it.

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.

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.
