New study suggests today’s #SUVs are more lethal to #pedestrians than cars

“Our findings provide more evidence that manufacturers need to make design changes to help combat the increase in pedestrian fatalities now that more of the vehicles on the road are SUVs"

June 16, 2020

"Though their designs have changed considerably over the past two decades, late-model SUVs still appear to be more likely to kill pedestrians than cars, a new study from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety found.

"Thanks to advances in safety, the number of people killed in motor vehicle crashes in the U.S. has fallen from more than 50,000 in 1980 to 36,560 in 2018. Over the past decade, however, the number of pedestrians killed on American roads has ticked steadily upward.

"'The proportion of SUVs in the U.S. fleet has grown dramatically, so it’s discouraging that they still seem to be more deadly to pedestrians than cars are'
says IIHS Statistician Sam Monfort, lead author of the study."

more studies are showing that the best way to protect cyclists at the most dangerous point on their rides is to simply let them blow through stop signs in what is commonly known as an “Idaho stop”.

when drivers received an education about the rolling stop sign law for cyclists, they approached intersections slower than before and created fewer dangerous scenarios for the cyclists.

Ich glaub', dies ist jetzt mein Lieblingsverkehrszeichen:
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datei:Ze

Erst gestern wieder, #mdRzE, zur Gärtnerei, alle 12 km eine tatsächliche Auseinandersetzung mit Zweispurigen: Einmal Hupen direkt neben mir aus 1 m Abstand (Schreck!!), einmal verbale Feindseeligkeit nach meinem freundlichen Hinweis auf § 5 Abs. 4 StVO (Abstandsgebot beim Überholen von Einspurigen).
»Irgendwann wird mal wer handgreiflich und haut dich«, sagte mein Mann dazu.

Are #drones the future of close pass operations? Police in #Canada are using #drones as part of an attempt to clamp down on dangerous driving around #cyclists.
As part of #Ontario’s #Bike Month, officers are conducting “emphasized enforcement on both #cyclists and motorists,” while also issuing warnings about drivers ‘rolling coal’ at people on #bikes 🇨🇦 🚴🏼‍♀️ 🚴🏼 🚴‍♂️

Um, I'd say, "YES!" Even here in #Maine I'm noticing way more #RoadRage than there used to be. Last year, when a jerk in a truck hit my car, he threatened both myself and the witness -- even though he was at fault. There is definitely something wrong with people (and it seems to be mostly men from my own observations).

The Rage Epidemic: Is Our #ModernWorld Fueling #Aggression?

After a video of a man screaming road-rage abuse through a car window went viral, we ask what’s behind the fury so many feel.

Andrew Anthony, May 2024

"Aaron Balick, a psychotherapist and author of The Psychodynamics of Social Networking, believes that new technologies have ushered in an era in which 'there are more ways to express anger' and there is less shame attached to its expression. He also attributes this cultural shift to politicians such as Donald Trump who have 'normalised' anger.

"According to the Gallup Global Emotions Report, anger around the world has been rising since 2016, with 23% of respondents now feeling angry on any given day – figures are understandably much higher in war zones.

"In the #UK shop workers and service staff have reported sharp rises in customer abuse in recent years, and one study showed criminal violence in GP surgeries had doubled in five years (this was back when it was possible to get an appointment in a GP surgery). Reported road-rage incidents also increased by 40 per cent from 2021 to 2022 (although lockdowns would have played a part).

"Anger, aggression, abuse and criminal violence are, of course, all different things. There is also a psychiatric classification of 'intermittent explosive disorder'.

"Psychologists draw a distinction between anger (an emotion) and #aggression (a behaviour). [...] 'Anger is a natural emotion that arises involuntarily,' says Balick. In basic psychological terms anger is a means of alerting another that a boundary has been crossed. 'Obviously you can also be angry on false premises,' adds Balick.

"'Saying how you feel is anger,' says Michael Fisher, founding director of the British Association of Anger Management. 'It becomes aggressive when you start to scream and shout abuse.'"
