Highway Intersections and Injury Crashes in Delaware
Collisions at highway intersections like South Dupont Hwy and Reeves Crossing Rd are common in Kent County and often result in injury due to the volume and speed of traffic in these areas. S Dupont Hwy (US-13) is a major route that connects towns like Felton with larger urban centers, making it a high-risk corridor for both local and through traffic.
Intersections on high-speed highways often involve complex traffic patterns, including left turns across lanes and limited visibility from side roads. These factors increase the likelihood of T-bone or angle crashes, which are more likely to result in injury than rear-end or low-speed collisions.
Even in broad daylight, driver inattention or misjudging the speed of oncoming vehicles can lead to devastating outcomes. Victims of these crashes may suffer from neck and back injuries, concussions, or internal trauma—conditions that often require extensive follow-up care and time away from work or school.
For those hurt in crashes along highways, early access to support—including medical referrals, legal guidance, and insurance coordination—is critical for minimizing the long-term impact of their injuries.
