[QUOTE="Torch10th, post: 15634747, member: 15703"] While some of it may be from those that are driving while high, I think that the sheer increase in traffic on infrastructure not designed for it is more likely the culprit here. At least in Colorado anyway. The unemployment rate in Weld County where I'm at is 2.6%. The unemployment rate in Colorado as a whole currently sits at 3.0%. Even with the influx of residents we have been seeing, if people want to work in this state, they are working. That means there's A LOT of traffic, even in areas that in the past didn't have it. Combine an increasing number of residents driving more cars and the fact that we basically just give driver's licenses away these days, it's not surprising to see accident numbers ticking up. What I'd be more interested in seeing is per-capita increase. That would shine more light on the subject. [/QUOTE]
