The National Safety Council (NSC) is calling on everyone planning to travel to celebrate Thanksgiving with loved ones to practice safe, responsible driving. Roadways are becoming more dangerous; NSC estimates more than 21,400 people may have died on the roads through the first six months of 2021, a 16% increase from the previous year. Over this year’s Thanksgiving holiday period — which begins Wednesday evening at 6 p.m. and concludes Sunday, Nov. 28, at 11:59 p.m. — estimates show more than 500 people may die on U.S. roads. This is the highest projection of roadway deaths during the Thanksgiving holiday since 2007.
