Roxbury, a historic and heavily traveled part of Boston, experiences consistent vehicle and pedestrian activity. Washington St, one of its major corridors, carries commuters, buses, and delivery traffic, making it particularly prone to accidents. Collisions here often stem from rushed driving, lane changes, or inattentiveness at intersections.
