Highway Crashes in Arkansas
The incident on Hwy 110 near Clinton highlights the dangers present on rural highways throughout Arkansas. While traffic may be lighter on these stretches compared to larger interstates, higher travel speeds and limited shoulders can make collisions particularly hazardous. In this case, even with only the shoulder blocked, the crash disrupted travel and underscored how quickly accidents can affect roadway safety.
Injury accidents on rural highways are frequently tied to distracted driving, failure to yield, or loss of control.
