Cabarrus Rescue Squad

On May 20, 2000 a 90-foot section of concrete pedestrian bridge outside the speedway snapped in two and fell 25 feet onto Hwy 29 (a four-lane highway), taking nearly 100 NASCAR fans with it. Fortunately, all patients were transported within approximately 56 minutes and no deaths occured.

*At the time of the incident, the facility was called Lowes Motor Speedway. It has since been changed.
