    People are bored. People are also driving like total maniacs in a way that can’t be explained just by lighter traffic conditions.https://twitter.com/_cingraham/status/1273253301966888961 …

    Skyrocketing complaints over fireworks in NYC, Baltimore and other cities this summer. There's some media coverage but nothing offering a compelling explanation yet. Any theories? pic.twitter.com/GxKuUQargf

        I would note, people’s increased ability to spread their attention is not all bad. It’s part of why there’s been such rapid change in public opinion on race and policing issues. I’m nervous about the coronavirus impact of the protests, but people have used this time productively.

        I think many of them are just out of practice and probably couldn't drive for shit to begin with.

        Reverse for me. I didn’t miss a day of work...had the highways to myself and may have gotten a bit loose. The adjustment to other drivers has been swift and unwelcome

        Midtown Sacramento here - I've heard fireworks for the last 7 or 8 nights (at least). But they only last a few minutes so it's whatevskies.
