The site says U.S. 93 between Wickenburg and the Hoover Dam, especially the stretch in Mohave County, is considered the worst part of the highway, and most of the fatal crashes occur along the segment in Mohave County.
At one time the Lake Mohave Ranchos Fire District had some rocking volunteers. 25 years ago when Mike Pettway and John Lilly were both volunteers, the LMRFD had lots of volunteers, 6 ALS ambulances, and several rescue vehicles.
They ranked US-93 in Arizona as the most dangerous highway in the U.S. This 200-mile-long road runs between Wickenburg, Arizona, and the Hoover Dam Bypass Bridge, also known as the Mike O'Callaghan–Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge, near Nevada's border.
Many drivers use this route when driving between Las Vegas and Phoenix. Most of the fatal crashes occur along the segment in Mohave County, Arizona. Overall, 70 fatal crashes reportedly took place on this highway from 2010 through 2016.
The study shows that U.S. 93 is the fourth worst highway for emergency medical service wait times, behind two highways in Texas and one in Alabama. The median EMS wait time for U.S. 93 is 21 minutes and can take over an hour in some case.
