traffic deaths were rising both before and after legalization; since legalization clearly didn't cause the former rise, there's no sound basis for claiming it caused the latter.

Name something that occurred in 2011 that resulted in traffic violations occurring. If you can't, you have no point.

Simply wrong.

In Colorado, Washington state and states that decriminalized marijuana, the pattern consistently shows traffic fatalities increasing after marijuana legalization/decriminalization.

You've provided evidence only for Colorado - and there, the rise predated legalization.

more citizens intoxicated = more negligent deaths.

No evidence that legalization = more citizens intoxicate.

I don't points I can't back up. Traffic fatalities involing marijuana more than doubled from 2011 to 2016 in Washington state:
