unsurprising statistics

I heard a statistic a while back.  It seems that traffic accidents involving people high on marijuana more than doubled in Colorado the first year after that state legalized recreational marijuana.  Somehow this information didn't surprise me.  Just this week another statistical report caught my attention.  It seems that injuries from accidents involving electric scooters have increased greatly between 2014 and 2018.  I suspect it was during those years that rental scooters became available in most large cities.  If people in other cities ride them with the same casual attitude toward traffic laws as people in Fort Wayne I am not surprised. Happily they are off the streets for the winter months.
