MSHP Sgt. says I-70 more dangerous than Highway 63

Don’t believe it when you hear them say Highway 63 is the deadliest stretch of road in Missouri.

“It’s quite misleading.  I don’t know what their criteria was, [but] the study was actually done by a fleet management business.”

The Highway Patrol’s Sgt. Scott White says between 2008 and 2017, I-70 saw 423 fatal crashes compared to 160 for the same period on
Highway 63. He doesn’t how the study came up with those incorrect numbers.
