The 'Deadliest Highway' In Washington State Has Been Revealed

Americans have many modes of transportation, but having your own vehicle puts travel in your hands. With that said, drivers also have to brave obstacles and even dangers whenever they run errands, head to work, or do other important tasks. Several hazards can easily endanger people on the road, including severe weather conditions, traffic congestion, poor infrastructure, and frequent car crashes.

To see if you drive on a treacherous road, World Population Review used data sourced from Car Insurance Comparison to determine every state's deadliest highway. According to the website, Washington State's deadliest highway is Interstate 5.

This interstate, which runs from San Diego, California to the U.S.-Canada border, sees an average of 26 traffic fatalities per year. Analysts noted that interstates typically experience more accidents and fatalities since they're more popular routes of travel.

U.S. Highway 1 in Florida was declared the most dangerous road in the entire country.

Here are the deadliest highways in America, according to data:

1. U.S. Highway 1 in Florida
2. U.S. Highway 83 in Texas
3. Interstate 4 in Florida
4. State Road 138 in California
