Intersection Accidents in Charleston
Crashes at intersections like 36th Street SE and Noyes Avenue SE are common in Charleston, particularly in areas with mixed residential and local business traffic. Drivers navigating these roads must remain especially cautious, as poor visibility, sudden stops, and turning maneuvers often contribute to collisions.
Mid-afternoon incidents, like this one, often coincide with increased traffic volume and activity in neighborhoods where schools, workplaces, and service centers are located. Even at low speeds, intersection crashes can cause significant injuries due to side impacts or abrupt vehicle movements.
For those injured in such crashes, immediate medical attention is crucial, even for what may appear to be minor symptoms. Injuries such as whiplash, back strain, or head trauma can present delayed effects. Prompt evaluation helps ensure proper care and protects the injured party’s rights if claims or legal action become necessary.
