From October 2005 to March 2006, there were a total of five reported wrong way crashes in the Charlotte, North Carolina area that resulted in seven deaths. This seemingly abnormally high occurrence of wrong way crashes quickly raised the concerns of both state and local officials as well as others such as the media and the general public. In an effort to determine the exact magnitude of the wrong way crashes in North Carolina and whether additional initiatives (enforcement, engineering, etc.) are needed/warranted to prevent future crashes of this type, the Traffic Engineering and Safety Systems Branch of the North Carolina Department of Transportation initiated a detailed analysis of wrong way crashes.
