ALBANY — Two fatal crashes took place on Route 16 in Albany and Madison within two days and two miles of each other. A three-vehicle crash occurred Friday afternoon in Albany that claimed the life of a child. A single-car crash Sunday in Madison killed an Albany man who was the devoted dad to his 6-year-old son.
The Albany crash occurred at about 5:20 p.m. Troopers from State Police Troop E, along with Carroll County Sheriff’s Department responded to the report of the crash in the area of mile marker 72.2, near Sunny Brook Cottages.

If people wouldn't drive like aggressive, inconsiderate maniacs these fatal wrecks wouldn't happen. And wider shoulders so drivers can pass cars waiting to turn? Seriously? Everywhere I've driven that is considered an insanely dangerous stunt, and is illegal. Not in NH! No, here they fly past cars waiting to turn without a thought in the world. Guess no one in NH ever stops to let children or people in wheelchairs or dogs cross in front of them. Rt16 doesn't need wider shoulders, NH drivers need a serious attitude adjustment.
