Texting and cell phones are a huge distraction. But I do think the parents are somewhat to blame. Kids do what they see, not what they are told.
One good thing that is helping, the awareness of drinking. Used to be that was just something that was done, no big deal. Different story today!
Also todays cars, though they are much safer as for surviving a crash, I think they can also lull a person into a false sense of security. They ride and handle so well, a beginner driver never gets to find out what to do in an emergency. Back when I was learning to drive, I knew that 3 ton land yacht with drum brakes, loose steering. and may-pop tires was to be treated with respect!
Another pattern I am seeing, in the metro areas, on the interstate... The city cops in the larger citys have quit patrolling the freeways. They leave it up to the State DPS. DPS tends to work outside the city where they are more needed.
So, word is out, if you choose to drive 100+ MPH, not much chance of getting caught, especially on a motorcycle. Even if they do see a cop, the police are not likely to get too involved in a chase, or even try to stop them, causes too much distraction, onlooker traffic jamb.
