Just remember this when some hysterical nutjob tries and lecture you with statistics about how more people are dying and how it must be corona. They dont want to consider how many more suicides and car crashes there have been. |

Misleading...fewer crashes, but higher rate of fatalities. |

People have been driving like maniacs for 2 months+. I have to pull over to the right doing 80-85 so as not to get run over. A guy on a bike yesterday was doing minimum 110mph weaving through 3 lanes at 4pm in the afternoon on the expressway. |

I’ve noticed an uptick in Eureka when I’ve dropped animals off at locker or picked up beef but in between it’s still pretty dead. It’s been a couple months since I’ve been over to Peoria though so I’m not sure how 40 is between Tanners and Peoria. |

My Mom's in a nursing home in Eureka and I've noticed more traffic every time I go see her. Haven't been in the Tanners direction in a while. |

I've noticed more traffic this past week but it is still 30-40% of the normal amount. |

Not quite there yet, but it is way more normal than mid April. |
