As readers of this column know, I absolutely detest having to travel on Interstate 70. I think of the Interstate Highway System as a means of population control. I shudder when I even think about the number and kinds of injuries and deaths caused by the war constantly waged between 18-wheelers and small sedans delivering families from one location to another. I don't know what could be done to halt the current carnage on the nation's highways.
