Definitely! Connecticut is a very car-dependent state, which can be costly to those who own a car and very limiting to those who don't (not to mention harmful for all the other reasons you mentioned above).

We actually took a deep-dive into the rise in deadly car crashes in CT about a year ago: https://ctmirror.org/2022/02/06/connecticut-traffic-deaths-fatalities-dui/.

Additionally, one of our contributors writes a weekly opinion column centered around transportation issues. He founded the CT Commuter Action Group and is a big proponent of public transit, especially trains: https://ctmirror.org/talkingtransportation/.

I'll pass your note along to our urban and regional issues reporter :)
