High accident roads in West Virginia cited by DMV
The West Virginia Division of Motor Vehicles lists U S Route 60 in Cabell County and Route 10 among the states riskiest roads in the top 1 percent for high accident rates. From 1998 to 2000 Route 60 in Kanawha and Cabell counties saw 2 601 and 2 918 accidents respectively with injuries and fatalities. Officials say congestion and dangerous curves drive the risk. Redistricting plans worry Kanawha County and Eastern Panhandle lawmakers as populations shift and precincts change.
