Iowa Traffic Fatalities Rise in Multiple-Vehicle Crashes
In the first quarter of 1988 Iowa saw 100 traffic deaths, 22 more than 1987, with 63 percent of fatalities attributed to drivers losing control. Alcohol or speed was a factor in most of these crashes, and several high fatality events occurred in Grinnell Marion and Springville. A Life Toll list records victims, some unbelted, others saved by seat belts.
