Detroit Intersection Collisions and Injury Response
Accidents at intersections like E Canfield and St. Antoine are unfortunately common in densely trafficked city centers. The crash reported on January 5 highlights the dangers these intersections pose, especially during the early hours when visibility, fatigue, or rushing drivers can all play a role in increased crash risk.
