There is a substack article entitled "What the heck happened in 2012?" whose premise that 2012 in particular was an important year is a bit dubious (with the 2007-2008 financial crisis being a better date in many cases), but which does have lots of neat charts on older and more recent trends.
The premise is that we're having something of a 1968 style cultural upheaval driven by economic prosperity, smart phones, and the Internet. The link between pedestrian deaths and smart phone ownership is particular viable as a causal connection.
