Las muertes por accidentes automovil\u00edsticos han ido disminuyendo en los Estados Unidos durante los \u00faltimos 50 a\u00f1os. Los avances significativos en la seguridad de los autom\u00f3viles y las leyes de tr\u00e1nsito, as\u00ed como la disminuci\u00f3n de las muertes por conductores en estado de ebriedad, han contribuido a menos<\/a> muertes<\/p>\n

\"ni\u00f1a<\/p>\n

Estad\u00edsticas de v\u00edctimas mortales de tr\u00e1fico durante la pandemia<\/h3>\n

Lamentablemente, la pandemia de COVID-19 ha revertido esa tendencia en todo el pa\u00eds, y Virginia no es la excepci\u00f3n. En 2019, el \u00faltimo a\u00f1o antes de la pandemia, 827 personas fallecieron en las carreteras de Virginia. En 2020, el primer a\u00f1o de la pandemia, se registraron 847 muertes, un aumento del 21% con respecto a 2019.<\/p>\n

En Virginia se registraron m\u00e1s muertes por accidentes de tr\u00e1fico a lo largo de 2020, a pesar de que el n\u00famero total de millas recorridas por los estadounidenses en todo el pa\u00eds disminuy\u00f3 dr\u00e1sticamente ese mismo a\u00f1o. Seg\u00fan la Oficina de Estad\u00edsticas de Transporte del Departamento de Transporte de Estados Unidos, los conductores estadounidenses recorrieron 3,261 billones de millas en todo el pa\u00eds en 2019, pero solo 2,905 billones de millas en 2020.<\/p>\n

Las muertes tambi\u00e9n aumentaron a pesar de que se reportaron significativamente menos accidentes automovil\u00edsticos en todo el estado en 2020. Se reportaron 128,172 accidentes automovil\u00edsticos en Virginia en 2019, pero solo 105,600 en 2020. Por lo tanto, aunque los accidentes disminuyeron en 21% de 2019 a 2020, las muertes aumentaron en 2%.<\/p>\n

En 2021, el segundo a\u00f1o de la pandemia, las muertes por accidentes de tr\u00e1fico en Virginia aumentaron dr\u00e1sticamente. 967 automovilistas perdieron la vida en 2021, lo que representa un aumento de 151.000 a 51.000 con respecto a 2020. El total de kil\u00f3metros recorridos en todo el pa\u00eds se recuper\u00f3 hasta alcanzar los 3,227 billones, pero a\u00fan hab\u00eda menos coches en las carreteras en 2021, en comparaci\u00f3n con 2019, cuando se registraron menos v\u00edctimas mortales.<\/p>\n

Un an\u00e1lisis del New York Times de datos a nivel nacional encontr\u00f3 que las muertes por veh\u00edculos per c\u00e1pita aumentaron 17,5% de 2019 a 2021. Se trata del mayor aumento en dos a\u00f1os desde finales de la d\u00e9cada de 1940.<\/p>\n

\u00bfQu\u00e9 est\u00e1 pasando?<\/h3>\n

\"hombre<\/h3>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>La frustraci\u00f3n, probablemente impulsada por los protocolos y restricciones pand\u00e9micos, puede estar impulsando el aumento de muertes. Art Markman, cient\u00edfico cognitivo de la Universidad de Texas en Austin, informa que esta frustraci\u00f3n proviene de \u201cdos a\u00f1os de tener que abstenernos de hacer las cosas que nos gustar\u00eda hacer. Cuando te enojas en el auto, genera energ\u00eda, \u00bfy c\u00f3mo disipas esa energ\u00eda? Una forma es pisar un poco m\u00e1s el pie del acelerador\u201d.<\/p>\n

La teor\u00eda de Markman parece estar respaldada por las estad\u00edsticas. En 2020, muertes relacionadas con la velocidad<\/a> en Virginia aument\u00f3 en 16% a 406, lo que represent\u00f3 casi la mitad del total de muertes ese a\u00f1o.<\/p>\n

\u201cLamentablemente, algunos conductores vieron los carriles vac\u00edos y las carreteras despejadas, resultado de los confinamientos por la pandemia, como una invitaci\u00f3n a comportarse de manera irresponsable y peligrosa al volante\u201d, dijo Morgan Dean, portavoz de AAA Mid-Atlantic.<\/p>\n

\"conductor<\/p>\n

Principales factores que causan muertes de tr\u00e1nsito durante la pandemia<\/h3>\n

Dean describi\u00f3 cuatro factores que jugaron un papel en el aumento de las muertes por accidentes de tr\u00e1fico en 2020 y 2021:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Exceso de velocidad<\/li>\n
  • Conducci\u00f3n agresiva\/imprudente<\/li>\n
  • consumo de alcohol<\/li>\n
  • No usar cinturones de seguridad<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    El Departamento de Transporte de EE. UU. tambi\u00e9n inform\u00f3 que las tasas de conductores discapacitados debido al uso de opi\u00e1ceos y marihuana aumentaron dr\u00e1sticamente despu\u00e9s de mediados de marzo de 2020. Eso, sin duda, ha contribuido al problema.<\/p>\n

    Abr\u00f3chese el cintur\u00f3n de seguridad, disminuya la velocidad, evite la conducci\u00f3n agresiva y no conduzca ebrio. Juntos, esperamos que podamos revertir estas tendencias alarmantes en 2022.<\/p>\n
