If you crash into a stationary post or a pedestrian, the higher speed is a direct contributor to the higher fatality rate.
Pedestrian fatalities are at an all time high in the US and this trend is not present in other countries that also have smartphones.
- mike_hock 2y agoYou don't crash into a stationary post or a pedestrian on highways. If you crash into a stationary post, you were texting. If you crash into a pedestrian, WTF was the pedestrian doing there.
- bobthepanda 2y agoThere are plenty of state “highways” with businesses and residences immediately abutting. Most road fatalities are not occurring on the interstates.
- Ensorceled 2y agoThe pedestrian is most often walking in a crosswalk and getting hit by drivers breaking the law (illegal turn, distracted driving, not yielding)
