Being safe on the road is very important to many people. From road rage with other drivers to car crashes, driving can be very dangerous. It is best to be aware of your surroundings whenever you are on the road. One of the other important thing is to be aware of where you are when you’re on the road. Some areas may be a bit more dangerous than others when it comes to driving.

Law Offices of James Scott Farrin released a list of North Carolina’s most dangerous countries for drivers. The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) collects statistics about accidents, injuries, and more to determine the rankings. Their rankings help us determine which cities are the most dangerous, but also safest for drivers. For the 2021 report, NCDOT determines that the most dangerous counties in North Carolina are:

  1. Robeson
  2. Scotland
  3. Edgecombe
  4. Vance
  5. Hoke

This report shows that these most dangerous counties are not the most populated counties in the state. These are the most dangerous and some of these same counties also fall with being the deadliest counties by the number of fatalities for 2021. But, the deadliest county did not make the most dangerous county top 5. The deadliest county according to fatalities in North Carolina is Mecklenburg County. For a more positive note, is the safest counties in North Carolina. The counties that rank as the top 5 safest are:

  1. Hyde
  2. Camden
  3. Avery
  4. Washington
  5. Yancey
