Daily road accidents for this week’s #TidyTuesday

Code on GitHub

A grid of seven scatter plots, one for each day of the week from Monday to Sunday. Each plot displays US daily road fatalities between 1992 and 2016. The horizontal axis represents the number of fatalities per day, while the vertical axis shows the ratio of that day’s fatalities compared to the 60-day rolling average, presented on a logarithmic scale. Points are coloured based on density, highlighting clusters. The plots for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday visibly contain more points concentrated towards higher fatality counts and higher ratios relative to the rolling average, compared to the plots for Monday through Thursday. A solid horizontal line marks a ratio of 1, and a dashed vertical line indicates the median number of daily fatalities across the entire period.
