@BrentToderian This is 2/3 of the way to being a great graphic.

But it falls apart on that last 1/3 by using the debunked "95% of crashes () are caused by human error" figure. Debunked because crashes arise from a wide range of interdependent factors, including but extending well beyond the actions of any single human.

They really should have just made it a 2-panel graphic.

A very good (and depressing) piece by @wisconsinwatch on 's terrible drinking culture. It mostly covers alcohol-induced deaths that occur directly. wisconsinwatch.org/2023/08/wis

Of course then there's also the scourge of drunk driving, which in Madison (and presumably elsewhere in the state) contributes to a huge proportion of fatal and serious injury traffic crashes.

So far my main disappointment with isn't the lack of bicycles. It's that they keep writing & saying traffic accidents. Traffic crashes is the wording to use. Words matter. If we wanna address traffic violence and the thousand upon thousands who die from car crashes every year?

A driver of a car, after first stopping, pulled out in front of person operating a motorcycle, killing that person in the crash.

Actor Treat Williams was operating the motorcycle.

I spent the whole Queer Eye episodes yelling at the screen; 'IT WAS CRASH NOT AN ACCIDENT!'

The kid lost his family and is left in a wheelchair because of a Ford150. Car Culture seems to be Queer Eye's one blind spot. At least they are driving a slightly smaller SUV this season.

Please use .

These things are not accidents. They are entirely preventable. Calling them "accidents" gives those who could prevent them--and fail--and easy out.

These things are not accidents. They are results.

Utfordring for skisport 1: Stadig kortere og dårligere sesong.

Utfordring for skisport 2: De stedene som faktisk har OK skiføre blir konfliktområder.

Den historien her får også en : Det kan fint omtales som en kollisjon i stedet for å bagatelliseres som et uhell.

Today would be another great day for federal regulators to start talking about the roles vehicle size, weight, and design play in the 40,000+ fatalities on US roadways every year.
