What Are the Most Dangerous Roads in the Region?
Interstate 20 (I-20)
I-20 is a major east-west corridor running directly through the Midlands and into Columbia. Heavy commuter traffic, freight transport, and frequent merging near urban exits contribute to a high number of multi-vehicle and high-speed collisions.
Interstate 26 (I-26)
I-26 connects Columbia to Charleston and sees a mix of regional travel and commercial trucking. Congestion near Columbia and varying traffic speeds increase the likelihood of serious accidents.
Interstate 77 (I-77)
I-77 runs north-south through the Midlands and is known for high-speed travel and heavy truck traffic. Accidents along this corridor often result in significant injuries due to speed and traffic density.
