This is the Todd and Tyler Radio Empire.

From Smithsonian Magazine, new research published this week in the journal Current Biology.

0:27.6

We all subscribe. Finds the November switch from daylight saving to standard time.

0:33.1

Corresponds with a 16% increase in deer vehicle crashes in the week after the clock's change.

0:39.8

Everything about this, and it's like bitching every year, but we have to because somebody's

0:45.0

got to do something. It's dark at, what, 445 now?

0:49.0

515 last night. 515. Well, folks that the current biology are doing something about it.

0:54.2

They're doing a study.

0:55.2

Scientists say that maintaining daylight saving time year-round would prevent 33 human deaths,

1:01.0

2,054 human injuries, and 36,550 deer deaths, also saving $1.19 billion in collision costs per year. A seemingly simple change, not changing the

1:15.5

clock back in the fall, not falling back, would lead to such a marked reduction in collisions

1:20.3

throughout the country, according to Laura Prue, a quantitative wildlife scientist at the

1:26.3

University of Washington. She was talking to NBC News when she made that remark. Why do you think that only lasts for a week? People start adjusting. Yeah, yeah. You start looking, you know, and maybe the deer says, oh, let's cross the road earlier when it's light out. They remember to set their clocks back. Yeah, they're like, oh, I forgot. Yeah, it's getting dark. Do you just more people on the road when it's dark out? That 1.19 billion in insurance money, you'd think they'd jump behind it and go, you know, hey, if the insurance lobby said, let's do this, somebody would hop to, wouldn't they? The new paper suggests, at least for some drivers and deer, that adopting daylight time year-round

2:03.3

is the way to go.

2:05.1

Scientists estimate this would lead to a 2.3% drop in deer vehicle collisions per year.

2:11.6

I still think big clock is behind daylight savings.

2:14.3

Yeah.

2:14.8

He said clock.

2:16.4

I love big clock.

2:20.8

I have a big group of friends with different opinions.
