Less drunk, but more driving - Can lockdown make you forget

Less drunk, but more driving - Can lockdown make you forget how to drive?


Auto & General Insurance's year-on-year claim trends recently found that, even though DUI related claims declined, there was an increase in accidents caused by negligent driving, smaller accidents and accidents with only one vehicle involved. This begs the question: Can lockdown make you forget how to drive?
When comparing the data from March 2020 and March 2021, the new year saw 30% fewer DUI claims as a percentage of total accidents than the previous year. This was likely due to limitations on the sale of alcohol and social gatherings. Interestingly, however, the number of accident claims for reckless driving has increased by 27% - proportionally - at the same time.
