Morning Intersection Collisions in Charleston
Intersections such as Pennsylvania Avenue South and Boulevard West are high-risk zones for vehicle crashes, particularly during the morning commute when driver volume increases and roadway visibility may be affected by sun glare or distractions. Monday’s two-vehicle crash highlights the dangers drivers face during peak hours, even in familiar routes.
Injuries from intersection collisions often result from side-impact crashes, sudden stops, or misjudged right-of-way decisions. These types of accidents can lead to serious outcomes—especially if drivers or passengers are unrestrained or caught in high-speed impacts.
Charleston drivers are encouraged to exercise caution during rush hour travel, maintain safe following distances, and remain alert at intersections. A brief lapse in attention can result in a significant collision.
For those injured in two-vehicle crashes, the aftermath may involve emergency care, follow-up treatment, and insurance negotiations. These steps can feel overwhelming—especially if fault is disputed or injuries interfere with work and daily life.
