Thanks for adding that data point at least!

There are many society wide problems, all with various trade offs and costs to ‘fix’. (I added quotes, because in most cases I suspect a real actual fix is impossible - merely moving things around into another category or changing how the underlying situation presents itself).

There are also many different individual choices one can make, with relative tradeoffs.

How would you rate illegal drug use/overdose deaths relative to DUIs for instance? What solutions (and related costs) do you think would be necessary to ‘solve’ the DUI problem? How about obesity? How about heart disease?

You’ll find comments in this post complaining about getting DUIs in the most walkable cities in the world, and on bicycles too.

We could ban all alcohol - would that solve it? Historically, the answer is a solid no.
