Alabama Traffic Quarantine Update: Week 25
It is Week 25 of the coronavirus pandemic, and total crash data is showing a decline in Alabama. Overall, crashes have declined to around 90% of their pre-COVID-19 levels. The number of fatal crashes increased over the two-week period. View Graph
This report comes amid reports from other states indicating that their drivers are taking advantage of fewer vehicles on the road, as well as less enforcement, to increase their speeds. Thus, the drop in fatal crashes due to the decrease in traffic has NOT occurred for those states.
The total number of COVID-19 cases is still on the rise in Alabama during Week 25. View Graph
The total number of deaths in the state resulting from COVID-19 is also continuing to rise.
