Motorcycle deaths are at a high in Utah for the last 10 years, but not record highs in Utah. In 1980, there were 44 motorcyclist deaths in Utah. In fact, if you look at data over the last 30 years in Utah the years 1980, 1981, and 1984 all had more motorcyclist deaths than this year

Where are these stats coming from for 2008? All the news stations are reporting them, but noone bothers to indicate what the source is.
