Urban Traffic Collisions in Buffalo
Crashes along city streets like E Ferry St in the MLK Park neighborhood are increasingly common as urban traffic density rises. These areas, often surrounded by schools, parks, and residential zones, see frequent pedestrian crossings and complex vehicle movement, making them more vulnerable to daytime accidents.
Buffalo’s older road infrastructure and close-set intersections further complicate driver visibility and timing, which can contribute to rear-end collisions, sideswipes, or turning-related crashes. Injuries in these types of accidents often include back strain, concussions, and lacerations that may not fully manifest until hours after the incident.
Anyone injured in a crash within an urban setting is encouraged to seek immediate medical evaluation and document the event thoroughly. Photos, eyewitness accounts, and police reports are crucial when seeking insurance claims or legal recourse.
