Want to Read $ 4.99"Summer is, ostensibly, the safest time to drive on the Dalton Highway, truckers would later tell me. After all, it is always light, and there is no ice, no snow, no darkness to hide the sharp curves or steep summits that wind between mountains. In Prudhoe Bay's summer, truckers tell me, you can see everything, protect yourself from everything. But more truckers die that time of year than any other, because when we talk about safety on the Dalton Highway, we are always talking about illusion . We are talking about delusion . We are talking about what is and always is the most dangerous highway in America."-Amy E. Butcher, Mothertrucker: Finding Joy on the Loneliest Road in America
