North CarolinaOn northbound Interstate 77 in Charlotte, there is an S-shaped curve as it passes under the Brookshire Freeway (exit 11, signed as Interstate 277 east of the interchange, and North Carolina Highway 16 in both directions). The reason for this is because there are two left-hand exits and entrances: one ramp goes from northbound I-77 to northbound NC 16, and the other ramp goes from the end of I-277 to southbound I-77.[29] Ohio
Dead Man's Curve was constructed as part of the Innerbelt project in 1959.[34] At the time, Interstate 90 had been planned to continue westward on the Shoreway, connecting with its current location via the never-built Parma Freeway.[35] It soon became apparent that the curve was too sharp for travel at typical Interstate speeds, and in 1965, the state lowered the speed limit from {{convert|50|mi/h|km/h|abbr=on}} to {{convert|35|mi/h|km/h|abbr=on}}.{{citation needed|date=July 2012}} Four years later,{{failed verification|date=July 2012}} authorities completed the first set of safety retrofits, which included banking the curve and installing rumble strips and large signs.[36] According to the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT), the crash rate on the Innerbelt (which includes Dead Man's Curve) is two to three times the regional average for urban freeways, despite the reduced speed limits on the roadway. The department has investigated ways of enhancing safety on the stretch, including a complete realignment of the roadway to reduce the degree of the curve.[37][38] {{As of|2014}} the proposed configuration of the curve as presented in the ODOT Innerbelt Plan[30] is still planned to be built but not until the mid-2020s.[39][40] According to a 2013 ODOT count, 64,720 vehicles travel on the curve every day.[41]
