While driving south on highway 55 heading to Rochester Minnesota we passed a blue highway sign that read "towards zero death traffic corridor"

Does this imply that we were driving towards a zero death traffic corridor? Does that mean we were driving in a death ridden corridor, and in a few moments we would just barely make it into a zero death corridor? And if you are in a non zero death corridor, about how many deaths does that current corridor inflict?

Maybe the sign was implying that the corridor that we were driving in was trying to reduce the death to zero, and instead of moving towards more death, that particular corridor was moving towards lesser deaths with the hope of obtaining a zero death statistic. Even so, how do we ascertain the current death statistic of a corridor that is moving towards zero death? And, does that imply that there are corridors that are moving towards greater death? Isn't it safe to assume that all traffic corridors are striving for a zero death percentage, or does this sign prove otherwise?

Daylight savings time in MN. It is a gift of an exteded day by one hour, and then a six month curse of long dark winter nights.
