I doubt that there are less drunk bus or truck drivers.

This seems strange to me. Why do you doubt this? Even if bus / truck drivers drive drunk at the same rates as car drivers, there would be less drunk bus / truck drivers due to the numbers.

The absolute number is whats important because each drunk driver you add is extremely dangerous to society.

Also if society moved away from car driving, the loss in car vehicle miles traveled would not be compensated for by equal increases in truck / bus vehicle miles traveled because trucks and busses aggregate many trips together.

Please use enterprise.lemmy.ml for testing

 

Also, 36,500 people were killed, and 4.5 million people were injured in the USA in 2019.

This report makes the mistake of blaming individuals for not wearing seatbelts and speeding, when a shift in urban design is necessary to mitigate this disaster.

The concept of Chicago being super dangerous is a incorrect right wing meme.

It has half the violent crime rate of Memphis, for example. And that violence is highly concentrated in particular neighborhoods.

I believe that upvotes in lemmy are not only saved but are also publicly availible with the API.

Yes, they also haven't implemented extension support yet.

I'm not convinced. There's already plenty of choices for chrome reskins. I'd rather they make their search engine better. Maybe get independence from bing.
