I wondered if there was a similar effect in the UK. There has been a big reduction in road deaths in the UK - far more, as a percentage, than in the US (2007-2013: UK -41%, US -20%)

And there was a slight reduction in vehicle miles.

But given the slower onset and the much bigger change, I think the UK reduction can't all be put down to the recession.
