My hypothesis is that the rise in distracted driving was just as bad in European countries but they have safer infrastructure that limits cars' speed and otherwise protects pedestrians, and I think that could be tested by looking at the rates of car crashes overall in Europe (if those went up at the same time as the US without a corresponding rise in dead pedestrians I think that'd suggest their infrastructure is the difference)
