Just like all the other Americans, right? (meme reference)
(but more seriously) The migrants are not used to that environment, and especially may fall into such traps more than people who know the area.

I wonder how many are the migrants bussed there from Texas.
Edit: the article mentions that it is at least partly due to climate change as well.
I know in some places, like Texas, they seem to presume that you have a tall truck. Anyone with even a normal-height vehicle is thereby put at a severe disadvantage, especially when you try to see past the tall truck that has pulled way far FORWARD past the line, just to stop at a red light.
i.e., it is for measuring the size of one's dick, even (especially?) for women drivers. Learn to swing it proud, or else never get anywhere in those places!
Sigh... too true.
Why... why is the world like this?
In both suburban(+rural?) and city areas, I hear a lot more of people racing their cars and honking lately. I suppose it is how they deal with their stress, by ignoring the needs of others as they think only of themselves.
Even if the former stuff is not the actual and literal cause of sleeplessness, I do find it highly emblematic/symbolic. People get theirs and everyone else can deal with it as best they can, or not, whatevs.
How do we know though that that is not how they calmly & casually just say "hello" in their world? :-P
The Eldritchen horrors that we saw are not the reason that... uh I mean, there is no such thing as... uh I mean it was a technical glitch, I swear!
Not only that, but also under these conditions. Blaming others for one's own problems used to be a sign of mental unhealth, but now it is considered a sign of "proper management"!:-P
Yeah I still use Blokada 5 on my daily driver - it generally works "well enough" for most things, so I never bothered to switch to 4 on it. But I did notice that if you try to play a game on it, it's like the ad blocker isn't even there, whereas version 4 worked a lot better straight away. I may just not have played around enough with the settings of 5 though:-).
I never said anything at all about "blaming" them, even if they did happen to be found at the center of this horrible situation. There are a lot of people who while sitting in the comfort of their mansions are very free to make a lot of choices - e.g. the Texas governor who sent them there under false pretenses - but recent immigrants, especially those fleeing persecution at home, are typically those least free and capable to avoid e.g. scams from a scummy landlord who may receive rent money in return for substandard housing where rats might be found.
Also the article talked about a change after 2020, and the influx of immigrants who were promised to go one place but then somehow ended up in a city not of their choosing seems to fit that criteria of something different than the two decades prior to that where infection rates were low.
