Intersection Crashes in Lancaster County
Crashes at intersections like New Holland Pike and Duquesne Dr are common in developing suburban areas such as East Lampeter Township. These roads handle both local and through traffic, which can result in congested conditions and frequent turning conflicts.
In Lancaster County, intersection-related collisions account for a significant portion of annual crash reports, according to PennDOT. Contributing factors often include distracted driving, failure to yield, and drivers misjudging gaps in oncoming traffic. Rural-urban transitions further complicate visibility and speed control at key crossings.
Victims of intersection accidents often experience more than immediate injuries. They may face delayed medical complications, rising treatment costs, and prolonged dealings with insurance claims. It’s important for those involved in such crashes to document the incident thoroughly and seek both medical and legal support if needed.
