Tupelo Mississippi is one of the safest places to drive in Mississippi. However, car wrecks and eighteen wheeler accidents can still happen. The best way to avoid a car wreck is to be aware of your surroundings and drive carefully. In Tupelo Mississippi the main roadway throughout the city is Highway 45. 

This highway has been expanded on over the years and travels down from the North. Originally the highway followed with the Natchez trace and headed southward towards Jackson, but was renovated and split to pull through Tupelo in the early 1900’s. 

Currently it serves as the most congested roadway in Tupelo and is where the most accidents occur. By remaining vigilant when driving on Highway 45 we can reduce the number of wrecks that happen there and make our state a better place to drive.
