Miami’s Deadly Roads

muerteOn top of having some of the country’s worst drivers, Miami has earned yet another dubious distinction. Per a recent study, the city is also home to Florida’s deadliest road. That road is the nearly four-mile stretch encompassing the I-95 Express Toll beginning at Little River to the Golden Glades Interchange. Over 25 fatalities have occurred on this relatively small patch.

The reasons for the alarming number of fatalities on the road may have something to do with a major I-95 Express Lane problem: lane divers. Especially during traffic gridlock, drivers will illegally attempt to cross the delineators into the express lanes, creating a dangerous situation. The Florida Department of Transportation has taken steps to try and address the situation by making the gaps between the cones narrower, but there are still drivers willing to knock them down. The situation is severe enough there are bills being proposed to get rid of express lanes entirely.

Miami also has another pair of deadly roads and one of them is, once again, I-95. In this case, it’s a 7.88-mile stretch along the area of North Miami.
