There doesn't appear to be any relationship.

The more depressing it is to live in a state the more vehicle fatalities there are.

I just meant the two maps don't seem to correlate much.

Ohio has extremely strict policing on the road. Seems to work.

I moved from Ohio to Texas, and the way the police just don't pull over people for speeding 20-30 mph over the limit blew me away. Police down here are chumps.

Ohio has become synonymous with lame/depressing. Kids call things "Ohio" now.

I'm sadly aware. But guess who doesn't die when they drive? Not me, i moved to texas so death by drunk driver it is for me. :(

Edit: messed up what I was trying to say.

Not to the OP, but the red states are all Republican. (Or almost all, I think)

If you consider Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Kentucky south of the Mason Dixon line there is a strong trend here
