How many Montanans knew that about 71% of people who died of these injuries were “Not Taken” to any medical facility for emergency care? See attached data.
How many Americans know that over the years 2011 – 2015 the number of Americans who died of injuries due to vehicle violence was 166,990 people. And that 56% were “Not Taken” to any medical facility for emergency care. DRTs!
Imagine if each family that suffered such a tragedy posted their stories on a national online map. Would we have seen more action to prevent such tragedies?
Fewer Americans would be bamboozled.
