Slaughter Alley Replaced by 8 Lane Road in Oceanside
The eight lane freeway will replace the dangerous area of U S Highway 101 near Oceanside by 1968 after a fog and flaming crash killed six on February 21. State officials will seek bids within a month. Captain Don Merry of the California Highway Patrol urges legislation to allow removing trucks with dangerous cargo during bad weather to reduce deaths. He cites 84 highway deaths in 1964 65 on the Del Mar to San Clemente stretch and notes prior tragedies including the Roy Rogers Dale Evans adopted daughter crash.
