| Summary | A Phoenix Magazine investigation reveals that Arizona streets are among the deadliest in the country. "The chances of being killed in a car accident in Arizona are 40 percent higher that anywhere else in America," the magazine reports. The reporter finds that red-light runners, as well as illegal and drunken drivers are more common in Phoenix than in other cities. Another finding is that the Valley's many rural roads and high speed limits contribute to the fatality rate in car accidents. |
