The highway between Atlanta, Georgia, and Athens, Georgia has a high incidence of accidents along its 100 kilometers. Public safety officers say that the occurrence of accidents along the highway is randomly (uniformly) distributed, but the news media say otherwise. The Georgia Department of Public Safety published records for the month of September. These records indicated the point at which 30 accidents involving an injury or death occurred, as follows (the data points representing the distance from the city limits of Atlanta):

88.3 40.7 36.3 27.3 36.8
91.7 67.3 7.0 45.2 23.3
98.8 90.1 17.2 23.7 97.4
32.4 87.8 69.8 62.6 99.7
20.6 73.1 21.6 6.0 45.3
76.6 73.2 27.3 87.6 87.2

Use the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test to discover whether the distribution of location of accidents is uniformly distributed for the month of September
