What we know about road deaths during the pandemic


The study verified that the absence of traffic jams played some role in allowing drivers to reach dangerous speeds on too-wide roads, but the researchers also found that the most significant differences between their forecast and real-world death totals happened in the dead of night, when most roads have always been congestion-free.

Between 10 p.mm and 1:59 a.m., deaths were nearly 22 percent higher than expected; during the typical morning rush hours, by contrast, deaths were actually 6.3 percent lower than the model anticipated they’d be. The late afternoon and evening rush hour, meanwhile, “did not differ significantly from the forecast.”

…2020 also saw an increase in hit-and-runs, which clocked in at 31.2 percent higher than originally forecast.

…According to AAA, “about 70 percent of the entire increase in driver fatal crash involvement [between May and December of 2020] was specifically among males under the age of 40.” Tefft suspects that increase may have been particularly driven by the minuscule subset of young, male motorists who were emboldened to do risky things on the road when the world shut down, though the data doesn’t tell him exactly why.
