“That means that the traffic safety efforts that we’re talking about today have literally allowed thousands of Marylanders and others who use our roads here to be alive,” said Lon Anderson, AAA Mid-Atlantic.
More BS double speak. Remember when lower speed limits were supposed to reduce highway deaths. Now speed limits in some places are the highest they have ever been but the number of deaths are the lowest. The real reason deaths are down is because of hardened occupant enclosures with air bags on most newer cars. This is why a car that cost $10,000 15 years ago is now $17,000.
Still WAY TOO MANY.
