Speaking of risk, this is what an actual vaccination scandal looks like.https://twitter.com/tictoc/status/1024981107794685952 …

Ah. The general rule seems to be: the more we drive, the less safe it is. Avoiding planes after the 9/11/01 terrorist attacks, and driving long-distances instead caused the death of more people than 9/11 itself.https://twitter.com/0xeugene/status/1025040615812153344 …

I followed this rabbit hole farther than I should have. Bloomberg has numbers and links to the http://iihs.org study which actually says that July 4th is the deadliest. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-08-01/tomorrow-looms-as-deadliest-day-of-the-year-for-u-s-car-wrecks … http://www.iihs.org/iihs/topics/t/general-statistics/fatalityfacts/overview-of-fatality-facts …

And I added up the 2012-2016 numbers to see if it's a significant difference... (33782+32849+32744+35485+37461)/(365*5+2) = 94 deaths per day if all days were equal...vs 122 on july 4th. Quite a bit higher!

“More cars on the road. More risk.” Why is this “truth” not universal? Congestion, auto infra growth, fee-for ride/service growth, poor bus growth, VRU fatality/severe injury growth, lousy enviro public health growth...all are directly related to “more cars, more risk”.
