I just used your source. It's bizarre that they adjust the vehicle stats for population size but not the pedestrian ones.

Regardless, here's a different source, search for "Pedestrian deaths per 100,000 people by age, 1975-2021": https://www.iihs.org/topics/fatality-statistics/detail/pedes...

The 2021 death rate is 2.2, that's the same as what it was in 1993. Looks like it's only gotten worse since then too: https://www.ghsa.org/resources/Pedestrians24

The point remains the same, vulnerable road user deaths are the more important statistic and it's not looking good whatsoever.
