These Are The Most Dangerous Roads In North & South Carolina

Planning a road trip? You may want to avoid certain roads. These are the most dangerous roads in America. EarnSpendLive released a report of the most dangerous roads in each US state and the same interstate took the title in both North and South Carolina. The good news is, it’s not one that most Charlotte area residents travel often. The bad news, if you are going farther south or north you very well may end up on it.

These days every road feels more dangerous than it did even just a few years ago. Just on my way into work this morning I saw several drivers blatantly run red lights. But there are still some safe roads out there. But others, if you can it may just be best to completely avoid. This list compiled by EarnSpendLive features the most dangerous roads in the country, based on the average number of fatalities that occur each year. Many of these roads see millions of drivers each year, making fatal crashes inevitable.

Below you will find the most dangerous roads in North and South Carolina as well as some nearby states you may find yourself driving through on your next road trip. Stay safe out there!
