That is where your error is.
Just because there are more people, does not mean there are more drivers.
In fact, licensed drivers have decreased at times, even as the population grows.
There were a total of 228,195,802 licensed drivers in the US in 2020, a decrease of 0.21% or 483,917 licensed drivers from 2019.
By 2023 estimated growth grew again, but only by 2 percent.
Using per capita is an inaccurate way of measuring fatalities or accidents.
We have more people in the country, but more and more do not drive, especially young people.
You measure them the same way you measure air traffic or rail fatalities, by miles traveled.
But my source, wiki collecting NTSB data, directly contradicts yours.

I know we've basically been focusing on TV shows, but I don't suppose including a movie or two from the 70s will hurt. My favorite war movie of all time, from 1970:
Don't know how based he is in this clip (I haven't seen it yet), but I found it not long after posting the OP (he seems to be making the rounds), so here it is:

Those are really good. IMO, Firefly is the best "sci-fi" series, and The Expanse is the best "science fiction" series. There's a lot more "sci-fi" out there than (bona fide) "science fiction" (probably because "sci-fi" is more amenable to general audiences). In my own personal taxonomy - where Firefly is at the "sci-fi" end of the spectrum and The Expanse is at the "science fiction" end of the spectrum - I'd classify Babylon 5 and Battlestar Galactica as "sci-fi". I'd put Star Trek (TOS & TNG, anyway - I'm not familiar enough with the others to say) on the "sci-fi" side of the spectrum, too - but with some tendrils reaching into the "science fiction" side. (Stuff like Star Wars wouldn't go on this spectrum at all - it's a separate sub-genre of speculative fiction I would call "space fantasy".)
The same kind of shenanigans occurred in the late Roman republic. Mos maiorum and long-established political "rules" started being blatantly and flagrantly violated for the sake of whatever political advantage could be gained in the moment.
The killing of the tribune Tiberius Gracchus (under Roman law, the person of a tribune was sacrosanct during his term) ... the refusal of the tribune Octavian to lift his veto of the Lex Agraria (it was expected that a tribune should and would withdraw his veto after a time if it became clear the Assemblies were determined to approve an item) ... the seven consulships of Marius, some of them consecutive (no one person was ever supposed to be consul more than twice, and never in consecutive terms) ... and those are just few of the most notable violations of social and political norms that eventually led to the failure of the Roman republic and the advent of the Caesarian empire.
History doesn't repeat - but there's an awful lot of rhyming going on right now ...
New NPR CEO Gave Ted Talk Asserting “Truth” is a “Distraction”
Says it’s ‘getting in the way of getting things done’.

{Paul Joseph Watson | 17 April 2024}
New NPR CEO Katherine Maher gave a Ted Talk during which she asserted that “truth” is a “distraction” which is “getting in the way of getting things done.”
Calls are growing for NPR to have its government funding withdrawn after a series of tweets by Maher were uncovered in which she supported far-left causes, including endorsing racial reparations and making claims that the planet is “burning.”
But the content of the Ted Talk she gave is raising even more eyebrows.
And we must face the fact that the United States is neither omnipotent nor omniscient. That we are only 6% of the world's population, and that we cannot impose our will upon the other 94% of mankind. That we cannot right every wrong or reverse each adversity, and that therefore there cannot be an American solution to every world problem.
