Are You Entitled to Compensation?
While you won’t be traversing many single-track roads on the side of a mountain, that doesn’t mean America is exempt from having its fair share of dangerous passages. The difference with our streets is that the threat takes on a dissimilar nature. As opposed to the “road of death” in Bolivia, where one wrong turn can send you off the edge of a cliff, our domestic roads are filled with collisions, inattentive driving, and inadequate infrastructure. Here are three of the most prominent examples. I-45, HOUSTON It’s not uncommon to hear first-person accounts of someone going 80 mph on this stretch of highway only to have another car blow by them going 90. The speed limit is 70 mph, but the constant standard of excessive speeding has led to difficulty for local police. Pulling someone over can present more complications than solutions because of the threat of crossing over multiple lanes of traffic. All of this led to I-45 being rated the second-deadliest highway in the U.S. in 2016. I-10, ARIZONA Our very own I-10 makes the list as one of the most dangerous roads in America. The 150-mile stretch from just outside Phoenix to the California border has been responsible for 85 deaths in one year alone. Given its lack of service stations and its remote nature, drivers in a collision on this stretch could wait longer than average for emergency response to arrive on the scene. DALTON HIGHWAY, ALASKA Not all dangers on our roads are inflicted by humans. If steep grades, icy road conditions, and avalanches aren’t your thing, then it’s best to consider avoiding this 400-mile stretch of highway. As if the conditions weren’t enough, 240 miles of this path are entirely barren — no gas stations, hotels, restaurants, or people of any kind. If you’ve ever seen the TV show “Ice Road Truckers,” all of these circumstances may sound familiar, because this highway is featured prominently on the show. If you’ve found yourself in hazardous driving conditions, or if you’re a victim of poor infrastructure, reach out to us today. Our team of qualified attorneys specializes in making sure you are represented within the full extent of the law.
