Car accidents can happen at any time, especially on rural roadways like Little Rock Road. If you drive rural roadways you should always heed extra caution. These types of roadways can have sudden turns and hills in the roadway that may impair your vision or cause you to have to turn the car suddenly. If you are not fully alert you can miss a simple turn and run off of the road way, such as the tragic case that resulted in a death this morning.
