Route
1 in Maine has just received the dubious distinction of being named one of the
7 most dangerous roads in America according to www.defensivedriving.com. If you are a frequent or even infrequent
traveler of that roadway you probably will agree.
Most
people will tell you that it is not a fun road to drive with poor road signs,
sharp curves, and often times harsh weather.
To make matters worse there is a large population of moose in the area
who use the highway as a crossing. All
of this combines to create the higher mortality rate along rural lanes in Maine
than in any other state. That last
sentence is sobering. Imagine, more
people per capita die in car accidents on rural roads in Maine than any other
state in the Union!
