Can you do a correlation plot or a comparison plot with the percentage of SUVs being sold/on the road? Edit: Mmm.. Possibly correlates more with smartphone us

  Here's something [1]. Data on the car market makeup by year is from here [2]. I only used the data for every 5 years because it is in a stacked line chart and I had to turn it into a table by measuring the heights of the various sections and lack the patience to do it for every year [3]. I omitted pickups and vans/minivans because the pickup share hasn't varied much and vans/minivans have a small share and including them made the graph too hard to read. Here are the shares in table form so you can mentally add them back if you wish. Minivans Sedans & Truck Car & Pickups Vans SUVs SUVs Wagons 1975 13% 4% 2% 0% 81% 1980 13% 2% 2% 0% 83% 1985 13% 6% 4% 0% 78% 1990 13% 9% 4% 2% 72% 1995 15% 11% 7% 2% 65% 2000 15% 7% 17% 4% 57% 2005 13% 7% 19% 4% 57% 2010 11% 4% 22% 9% 54% 2015 11% 4% 28% 9% 48% 2020 15% 2% 37% 11% 35% 2023 17% 2% 46% 11% 24% [1] https://imgur.com/gallery/pedestrian-death-rates-car-market-makeup-SAVFN8u https://imgur.com/gallery/pedestrian-death-rates-car-market-...

It was able to turn the chart into a table, but it too only did every 5th year, and some of its numbers were quite a bit off.
