North Carolina sees thousands of car accidents each year, particularly in high-traffic areas like Charlotte. Intersections such as South Blvd and E Woodlawn Rd often experience collisions due to heavy traffic flow, lane merging, and driver-related factors such as speeding and failure to yield.
According to data from the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT), many urban crashes occur at major intersections, making them hotspots for injury-related accidents. Nighttime driving further increases risks due to reduced visibility and potential driver fatigue.
