Car Accident Reports in Idaho
Even though multiple car accidents may happen anywhere, at any time, several Idaho roads and intersections have a reputation for being particularly risky. That said, drivers may reduce their risk of an accident and take the necessary precautions by being aware of the hazards associated with these areas.
Moreover, the highly used I-15 between Idaho Falls and Pocatello has seen its fair share of traffic incidents. Fast-moving traffic and sporadic gridlock are common on this section of the road, especially during rush hour. That said, drivers can avoid these incidents by being more cautious and taking preventative action against driving while distracted, speeding, and recklessness.
