Traffic Accidents in Indiana
Crashes like the one on Wayne Trace near Greater McMillen Park serve as a reminder of the challenges drivers face in residential-adjacent corridors. As traffic moves between neighborhoods, parks, and commercial zones, the risk of collisions increases—especially during high-volume evening hours.
Accidents in these areas are frequently attributed to speeding, inattention, or failure to yield. With Wayne Trace acting as a connecting route through East Fort Wayne, even a brief moment of distraction can lead to serious consequences.
