Horry County Roads Where Traffic Accidents Are a Concern

Horry County’s busy highways serve local commuters, commercial trucks, motorcycles, and visitors traveling throughout the Grand Strand. State collision records have identified U.S. Highway 17, U.S. Highway 501, S.C. Highway 544, S.C. Highway 9, and U.S. Highway 701 among the county’s leading roadways for reported crashes.

Highway 501 in Conway and Carolina Forest

U.S. Highway 501 connects Conway with Myrtle Beach and carries heavy traffic through commercial and residential areas. The intersections at Carolina Forest Boulevard and S.C. Highway 544 have appeared in state crash statistics. Merging traffic, sudden stops, and turning vehicles can contribute to rear-end collisions and serious intersection crashes.

Highway 544 Near Conway and Coastal Carolina University

S.C. Highway 544 serves residential communities and the Coastal Carolina University area. Congestion near major intersections and vehicles entering and exiting nearby businesses can create hazards for drivers and motorcyclists. Not yielding right of way or changing lanes without checking traffic around you can have serious consequences.

Highway 17 Through Myrtle Beach and Surfside Beach

U.S. Highway 17 passes through busy commercial and tourist areas where drivers frequently slow down, turn, or enter traffic. The intersection with S.C. Highway 544 has been identified in county collision records. Drivers must remain alert to motorcycles, pedestrians, and vehicles turning into businesses.

Highway 9 and Highway 57 Near Little River

The intersection of S.C. Highway 9 and S.C. Highway 57 has also appeared among Horry County’s higher-collision intersections in state reporting. Traffic entering from side roads and vehicles preparing to turn can create dangerous situations when drivers misjudge distances or fail to yield.

Highway 701 Through Conway

U.S. Highway 701 is another important route for local and commercial traffic. Speeding, unsafe passing, distracted driving, and improper turns can contribute to collisions involving passenger vehicles and trucks.

These locations are not necessarily dangerous at every point or at all times. However, understanding local traffic conditions can help explain why a collision occurred and identify evidence that may be important to an injury claim.

What Compensation Can You Pursue After an Accident?

You can make a claim for injury seeking compensation for losses related to the accident depending on the circumstances such as medical costs, future treatment, lost wages, diminished earning capacity, pain and suffering and other losses. Family members who qualify may have the chance to seek some additional damages in wrongful death claims.

Kinon Law Firm investigates the facts, evaluates potential liability, and works to pursue fair compensation. Attorney Chris Kinon has secured substantial results in serious injury cases, including a $642,500 settlement for an injured motorcycle passenger. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes.
