Highways like SR-14 can be particularly dangerous due to high speeds, heavy commercial traffic, and limited visibility in some areas. Crashes involving semi-trucks and passenger vehicles often result in severe or fatal injuries due to the sheer size and weight difference between the vehicles. Factors such as driver fatigue, road conditions, and vehicle control issues can all contribute to devastating accidents.
