Default If 50% of all interstate traffic deaths...

were discovered to (over a 50 year study) be the result of drivers from the following seven states:

Arizona
Indiana
Maryland
Massachusetts
Missouri
Tennessee
Washington

Would it be prudent for a highway patrolman to watch a car with one of these 7 plates a bit more closely?

Would you be more cautious when encountering a car on the interstate bearing the license plate of one of these 7?

Or do you feel it is something no one should be concerned with at all?


If you choose to answer any or all, please also provide the reason for your answer.

Link up the study. I feel like there would be ****loads of confounding factors in this, especially the way that you phrased it making it seem like it's strictly numerically based and not per capita.

That was my first thought for first place on that list.

Followed by New York in second place.

I figured that was the intention of the thread.

Still, it just doesn't seem right without NJ & NY at the top of the list.
