Highway Collisions in Green County
Rural highways like W Hwy 11 serve as vital connectors between communities, but they also pose significant crash risks due to high travel speeds, uncontrolled intersections, and limited shoulder space. Intersections such as Severson Rd, where cross-traffic meets fast-moving highway lanes, are particularly prone to T-bone and angle collisions.
Injuries from these types of crashes frequently include head trauma, spinal strain, and internal injuries—especially when seatbelts or safety systems are compromised. Quick access to medical assistance is key, and Brodhead Fire & Rescue plays a critical role in delivering lifesaving care across the county’s more remote areas.
Preventing future accidents in areas like W Hwy 11 and Severson Rd may involve expanded signage, reduced speed zones near intersections, and increased public awareness of rural driving hazards.
