By this same rationale, if we paid $10 a gallon for gas no one would die on the roads because no one would be on them. Brilliant!

A different measure, also offering good news, was the fatality rate, the number of deaths per 100 million vehicle miles traveled. It was 1.28 in 2008, the lowest on record. A year earlier it was 1.36.

It'll go back up when fruit harvest time comes around, no reason.

Fatalities, independent of miles driven, fall. This suggests that cars are safer thanks to anti-lock breaks, airbags, etc., or that people are driving safer. That merits a good news headline, yet the media spins it to talk down the economy.
