What Types of Injuries Are Common in Intersection Crashes in Delaware?
Intersection crashes in Delaware frequently result in injuries to the head, neck, and face, particularly when a vehicle is struck from the side or front. Facial and jaw injuries can occur when a driver or passenger makes contact with a steering wheel, airbag, or window during the impact. Even at lower speeds, the sudden force of a collision at a cross-street can cause significant trauma to the head and face.
Dover is home to numerous busy intersections along its residential and commercial corridors, and crashes at these locations are not uncommon. Medical evaluation after any crash involving head or facial pain is widely recommended, since some injuries may not be immediately apparent. Prompt care can help identify fractures or soft-tissue damage that might otherwise go unnoticed in the hours after an accident.
