Dan Patch (1896-1916) broke world speed records at least 14 times in the early 1900s. In 1905, he set a world's record for the fastest mile by a harness horse (1:551⁄4 – 1 minute, 55+1⁄4 seconds) that stood unmatched for over 30 years. He’s referenced in a famous Broadway song. Can you name it?

Road traffic injuries are the leading cause of death among children and young adults ages 5–29 years. About one in 70 Americans will die in a car crash. Yes, US road safety is really that bad. It’s worse than almost every other country, worse than central Asian states, like Kazakhstan.
