North Carolina's Most Dangerous Rural Intersection: 1971

 


Caswell County Trivia

In 1971 the North Carolina Highway Commission designated the intersection of Highway 86 and the Park Springs Road in Caswell County as the most dangerous rural intersection in North Carolina.

The Park Springs intersection with Highway 86 achieved its "most dangerous" rating on the basis of 21 accidents in a three-year period (with 11 of those crashes occurring in 1970) and "a very, very low traffic volume."
