People have been texting for 20 years. Yes, there has been an increase in bad driving since the advent of texting, but it hasn’t been as sudden and pronounced as the jump in bad driving in 2021. And with all of the unemployment and working from home, there seems to be lighter traffic now. The bad driving per mile driven must be even more pronounced.
I've gotten a little out of practice due to driving less in general.
But I feel like I've seen more accidents. One was a minivan driving off an interstate at highway speeds and hit the barrier on the other side, rolled over. I saw it in the rear view so no idea what happened but it could be a stroke or a seizure. I think these things are a little more common these days. Last trip I took took an extra 3 hours due to tons of accidents
