Out-of-Town or Just Moved to the Area? Here's Where Vehicle Accidents Often Happen (Charlotte: car, land)

[K4GPB]

US-1 southbound off-ramp to US Hwy 64 Westbound, in Cary

• It's a two-lane right-on-red that breaks your neck to look left
• The two lanes spread to three, with the right land suddenly becoming a turn lane
• Accident reports typically show drivers from outside the county
• Rear-enders on the exit ramp
• Lane-changers on 64
• Folks on test drives with new car from nearby auto dealers

Perhaps other locals will have their observations!

Roads or streets would have been my first choice too

If it breaks your neck, don't make the right on red. Making a right on red is not something one MUST do.

Aren't they re-working this intersection?

I shot a guys tire for pulling out in front of me. I hadn’t thought about just yelling at him.

I bought a new car from one of the dealerships near that intersection. Not that bad to navigate if you’ve done some of the swerves and short merges in Pittsburgh, Louisville, Charlotte, DC, and Hampton Roads. A very unpleasant intersection but not unnavigable.
