"According to a Kansas Highway Patrol report, Joseph S. Ward was driving a 2002 Jeep south on Interstate 435 and exiting onto Kansas Highway 10 westbound." Where is I -70 in Joco? If he crashed from southbound I-435 to westbound K-10 where did I-70 come into play? And when was I-70 moved to Joco?

I'm sorry but would one of the three previous posters please show me where in the article "I-70" is mentioned?I see no mention of I-70 but everyone seems to really be happy to take the LJ-W to task for mentioning it. But I'm old and my eyes aren't what they used to be. Yeah that must be it.

How can the LJW win any award when their online software program lacks the photo support that all the national news services offer. I wonder? I wonder if their just slacking when they could do a better job with photo support with all their reporting. There is plenty of pop-up adds but very little photo supporting of news which could be a budget problem.

"Interstate 435 and exiting onto Kansas Highway 10 westbound"That little curve gets me sometimes too, because it's still 65 MPH.
