Kansas State information:

Kansas is not only the leading wheat producer in the United States, but its rich and fertile plains are part of the  Breadbasket of the World. Without the agricultural bounty of wheat, beef, cotton, and salt, the United States, and indeed the rest of the world would succumb to starvation in very short order. A state of rolling fields and natural beauty, Kansas puts the  heart in Heartland.

Few people could ever forget the role Kansas played in the classic film The Wizard of Oz, but for many people it solidified their notion of what symbolized down-home Midwestern values. Even though Kansas may not have any major league teams within its borders, many Kansans closely follow the exploits of neighboring Kansas City, Missouri teams Kansas City Royals, Kansas City Chiefs, and Kansas City Wizards. The Kansas Speedway hosts races for NASCAR, IRL, and ARCA circuits, and the National Hot Rod Association has drag racing at the Heartland Park Topeka, located in the state capital of Topeka.

Tourists are also drawn to the state, as historical attractions such John Brown State Historic Site and the Kaw Mission State Historic Site bring in curious citizens throughout the country. Indigenous populations are an important part of the rich history of the state, and sites such as Native American Heritage Museum State Historic Site and the Pawnee Indian Village State Historic Site pay homage to these brave native people.

Kansas Highways:

Many interstate transportation routes run through the state due to the central location of Kansas in the United States. In fact, the exact center of the North America is located in Osborne County, and center of the United States is located in Lebanon, Kansas. This spot is used as the central reference point for all government made maps of the county. Interstate 70 connects Denver to St. Louis Missouri, and many major cities such as Topeka, Kansas City, Lawrence, Junction City, Salinas, Colby, and Hays. Interstate 35 runs north-south through the state and links Des Moines, Iowa to Oklahoma City. I-435 and I-635 connect major routes and serve as by passes for the Kansas City Metropolitan area.

Being a center of production and distribution, Kansas relies on heavy trucking to transport goods and products to the markets of the world. Correspondingly, Kansas has one of the highest rates of trucking-related fatalities in the nation. Out of the 594 people killed on the roads in Kansas in 2004, 94 of them were killed in a crash involving a big rig, semi, or 18 Wheeler. That means that 20% or 1/5 of all the people who died were killed by large trucks, compared to 12.2% for the entire United States.

Furthermore, because Kansas is a largely rural state, the number of people killed in car accidents and light trucks such as SUVs are nearly identical, 201 to 189, respectively. Many people in Kansas depend on light trucks and SUVs to manage their agricultural or stock assets without realizing the inherent dangers of these vehicles. SUVs are prone to rollovers caused by simple side impacts, and the high rate of deaths in Kansas in light trucks/SUVs highlights this unfortunate reality. If you have been injured you should seek out a Kansas car accident lawyer today.
