We lost a car due to road construction in KC. Right on I435 and I69. Hit something on an access ramp (there was always debri all over the zones) I felt something snap under my feet and hit the bottom of the car. Next thing we knew we were driving on three tires and dragging the front passenger tire. Managed to get pulled off and stopped. Car ruined.

Only good thing was a ride home from a very nice police officer. He let me ride in front and ran the lights for me. :) So many other close calls out there this year. It’s been crazy and deadly.

The Missouri side was just as bad. Because it’s interstate system inclusion was designed early in the program, they didn’t get enough right of way for interchanges. Buddies that were in Civil Engineering used to tell me of text books in college that used KCMO interchanges as examples of classic poor design.
