there seems to be an inordinate amount of vehicle fatalities this yr on hwy 97. Could it be whichever company is responsible for clearing the highways are slacking off?

Maybe if the drivers who intend to drive these highways can hum the mantra that says, " Lowest bidder, lowest bidder". Just repeat that til it sinks in. And then conduct yourself accordingly whilst driving.

The highway west of here was in summer-like conditions from about Bednesti to Burns Lake yesterday - clear pavement, dry as a bone, and no patches of black ice.
