Sounds dangerous. And when they fix the road or signage will that mean they accept responsibility for the deaths?

[Real Cynic No More]

Are tbe lanes full 12-foot width lanes?

[Not A Snowbird]

I drove that stretch a few weeks ago. I saw nothing unusual or dangerous about it.

[Cowboy Bob]

Has there been an increase of Illegals in the area? They are all lousy drivers...even when sober.

Representing the first new portion of highway added in the United States in 25 years

What?

Not true of US routes, and not even true of US Interstates. I99 is < 25 years old.

Highways don’t cause wrecks, people cause wrecks.

I think it’s a good idea to paint on the road markers of some sort at the places of wrecks that cause fatalities and severe injuries so that the public will be aware of dangerous sections of roadway.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

I’ve heard that people tend to drive more carelessly on good roads.

first new portion of highway added in the United States in 25 years

Say what? I can think of two new interstates and at least 3 loops/spurs added in my area in the past few years alone.

[Mr. Jeeves]

I drove it last month - it's just a straight freeway with a couple of big curves and without much traffic. I can't imagine the design having anything to do with the accidents - unless drivers were looking around at a stretch of desert they had never seen before and weren't paying attention.

They need to hurry up and finish work on the the much more dangerous part of I-11 between Kingman and Wickenburg, AZ. Especially that long two-lane stretch of Highway 93 north of Wickenburg with all the crosses along the side of the road.

It’s called suicide by car.
