Results

we calculated the number of fatal crashes per every 10 miles for each interstate within each state (removing those that did not cover at least 10 mi). Next, we determined “The Most Dangerous Interstates” by calculating the number of fatal crashes per every 100 miles for each interstate (removing those that did not cover at least 100 mi).
