Another reason to build the Keystone pipeline.

More AP BS.
I25 thru Colorado is the major highway from TX to the oil fields.
Most has been re-paved 4 years ago. The rest was beat up long ago.

[Gaffer]

And, if this sudden and ominous increase in traffic fatalities were the result of a bunch of illegal, uneducated, ignorant Mexican illegal peons being “legalized” in every state, city and county of this country and resulted in “celebratory action” that resulted in same, would AP be still so concerned?

I think not.

Maybe soemone should run the stats on accidents involving trucks hauling windmill blades. Those things are angerous!

[txrefugee]

DUH….how much has the population exploded in ND and Karnes Co. in TX? There were very few people in those places before the tracking boom, so of course, there will be more of everything now…..not to mention MORE MONEY.

However, all that truck traffic does wear out the small highways in these areas, and that should be addressed by the oil and gas companies that are wearing out these roads.

And I’m betting that fatalities from mass transit have quadrupled since the light rail lines have been added to the mix.

The LRT here has killed more people over the past 4 years than the city busses have killed over the past 50.

[Da Coyote]

Yes, folks, the MSM is really that weak minded.

Now, why do we put up with their cra...er...Obamastuff?

Really.

It really is time for more of us to give them the standard sign of respect to libs...that is in the one-finger greeting, and tell them to shove their silly little ideas up their collective Obamaholes.

[dfwgator]

They are really desperate now.

[a fool in paradise]

Well liberals wanted to tear up our train tracks and put in commuter rails and tollroads in those access ways.

We HAD the infrastructure to ship things other than using trucks.

[Dr. Sivana]

in some places, fatalities have more than quadrupled since 2004

In low population areas, a single accident could cause a "quadrupling" of fatalities (from 2 to 8). Raw data, please.

> a little-known price on some of the nation’s roads, contributing to a spike in traffic fatalities in states where many streets and highways are choked with large trucks and heavy drilling equipment.

The only reason those fatalities happened was, the drivers involved were trying to grasp at straws.

Oh, wait — that was the Partisan Media Shills doing that.

Thanks Olog-hai.

And how many babies do abortions kill every year?
