Death rates for cars are dropping, guns holding steady, and drugs skyrocketing.


Cars are safer and traffic so heavy, fatal accidents declined. Gun homicides are down but suicides are up so the line has held steady.
When people read drugs, the junkie shooting up in an alley comes to mind, but this line is caused by the huge increase in prescription medication overdoses. I suspect, like the guns, suicides play a major role. It's easier to resolve to swallow a bottle of pills, than pull the trigger.
