Here are some fun facts:
In 1940, there were 33,000 highway fatalities. A much, much smaller population had travelled 300 million miles.
In 2024, there were 39,000. The public had travelled more than 3 TRILLION miles.
For every mile the public travelled in 1940, it travelled 10,000 miles in 2024 - with very similar fatalities (less than 20% higher).
