I started a bicycle trip from the Amtrak station in Whitefish to Northern CA in August 1980 by riding south on Highway 93 to Missoula. I was very naive, and didn't realize that 93 was regarded as extremely dangerous. While bicycling I noticed a lot of parallel black skid-marks leading off into the ditch, and frequently saw a bumper sticker that read "Pray for me - I drive (highway) 93". I later learned that the drunken driving incidence on the Flathead Indian reservation was behind a lot of the carnage.

I’ve been very close to I-93...taken I-90 up through Idaho once from WY and on to Seattle, but don’t recall anything remarkable about that area, as far as unusual traffic hazards went. Lots of other things were memorable.

North of the reservation on hwy 93 is fairly bad (all the way to Eureka) for drivers too. The biggest problem (after the drunks) is the number of deer in the road. They’re like palestinian suicide deer.

“Pray for me - I drive (highway) 93”
Reminds me of 40 years ago,the “PRAY FOR ME I DRIVE HY 33!” in Oklahoma.
And “PRAY FOR ME I DRIVE HY 44!” in New Mexico.
