Texting and Driving Fatalities in 1960

Really not a fair comparison - data clearly needs to be normalized per capita. NY had ~58x the population of NV in 1960.
- You're absolutely right. Just fixed it.
  
  Did you though? Looks like the legend is still using absolute numbers.
When I was learning to drive the example of dangerous driving was a person dropped their cassette tape and was feeling around for it on the floor then veered head on into a truck and died.
- Same. I specifically remember "messing with the radio"
  
  There was an insurance ad on TV in the 90s or early 2000s where an empty cat is revealed to have a driver who was searching for a tape or CD when he pops up: found it!
I don't know what I expected
But what about reading newspapers and driving??
Also pager related fatalities in 2023.
- Sounds like a challenge.
meh its content i guess
Why did I click on the image?
- Because you were driving?
Now do 2060.
- Maybe we'll all have self-driving cars and better public transit by then, so it'll be zero!
  
  Or we will all have AI chat bots texting for us.
