"The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration calculated the fatal crash rate using the count of fatal crashes. Obtaining this data for 2008 to 2019 from the NHTSA, Geotab, a fleet management firm, compiled a list of the most deadly highways in the US. The aim of this compilation is not to promote a state of agitation but to urge drivers to take precautionary measures, and advocate authorities to keep developing the infrastructure and implement better traffic control throughout the country."
