There is a 6-17% increase in motor vehicle crashes on the nations highways, after the switch. Many of them being fatal!
A 10% increase in heart attacks in the days following the switch to DST.
There is an increase metabolic disorders, leading to diabetes.
I various studies it has actually been determined that daylight saving is counterproductive. In many instances it in fact increases the use of energy instead of saving energy.
