Why Myrtle Beach residents and visitors need to be wary of commercial trucks
The Myrtle Beach area is home to one of the largest seaports in South Carolina. And where there are seaports, there are tractor-trailers and delivery trucks just waiting to haul goods from Georgetown to the rest of the country. Unlike other areas of South Carolina, we don’t have a lot of large highways – which means trucks go rumbling down Main Street and side streets in order to get where they need to go.
This puts our residents and visitors as a distinct disadvantage, because we are far more likely to encounter a large truck in our day-to-day lives than the average SC driver. Pedestrians especially are at risk of an accident in Myrtle Beach, Surfside Beach, Georgetown – more than they are in other parts of the state.
