After driving through five states to get here, I would definitely agree with that article. But you're right Versatile, there's a stretch between Macon and Moberly that's pretty rough on my tires!

For some other info on this report, including pretty maps...

Reason Foundation Mobility Project - Policy Study 369: 17th Annual Report on the Performance of State Highway Systems (1984–2006) - main article, including link to the 66-page report
Reason Foundation Interactive Traffic Congestion Map - neat USA map of top/bottom 25 states

As to the fatality rates, disappointed that there is no break down as to cause/reason for the fatalities - just overall fatality.

However, quite good news overall - and congrats [with of course room for improvements] to MO's Highway Department
