The Sun will Naturally set later in the evenings under ST in the Summer having more Sunshine later in the day without going into what is normally considered Nighttime Hours. Changing from from one Time to the other kills people statistically Sometimes due to medical errors because of time change as one of the factors.
- On average, the time change causes a 6 percent increase in fatal car accidents in the week following the spring DST transition, which amounts to about 28 additional deaths each year. Mar 6, 2020 https://www.healthline.com › health-news › daylight-savin...
