    I just linked you 6 articles and a peer reviewed paper on the subject, but if you’re still not going to believe me, I’m not going to spoonfeed you. This is my last reply to your motonormative idiocy.

      None of them adjust the numbers for proportions and a bunch of articles are about vehicle size and lane width and its impact on speed, which isn’t what I’m asking about.

      https://crashstats.nhtsa.dot.gov/Api/Public/Publication/813458

      7837 in 1981 (which is more than the number you shared), there was much less cars on the road, average annual mileage was lower, total population was nearly a third less at the time, so no, it’s not at an all time high (these are your words) even the gross number isn’t.

      Adjusted for population it’s 11 244 deaths in 1981, pretty far from current numbers am I right?

      Try.

      Harder.
