The number of fatalities as a result of auto accidents increased in Tucson last year. According to an Arizona Department of Transportation report that was released last week, 70 people were killed on Tucson roads last year, marking a slight increase from the 65 fatalities in the city in 2017. And with summer officially here, more traffic is on the roads, meaning a greater chance of dangerous auto accidents for vehicles, bikes, and pedestrians.
