What Are Common Causes of Intersection Crashes?
Intersection crashes can occur when drivers fail to yield, run red lights, turn without checking for approaching traffic, or become distracted. Cross traffic can create serious hazards because vehicles may enter an intersection from several directions at once.
Drivers should approach intersections at a controlled speed and watch for vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists. Checking both directions before proceeding can help identify hazards that may not be immediately visible.
Turning drivers should use signals and yield according to posted signs and traffic signals. Distracted driving can reduce awareness of changing traffic conditions, so motorists should stay focused on the road.
Leaving adequate space between vehicles also gives drivers more time to brake if traffic suddenly stops. Following traffic signals and remaining alert can reduce the likelihood of a collision at busy intersections.
