Traffic Safety at Rural Intersections in Fort Wayne
Accidents at rural intersections, like E Tillman Rd and Decatur Rd, are often caused by a mix of factors including limited visibility, high speeds, and distracted driving. In Fort Wayne and surrounding areas, it’s essential for drivers to stay vigilant, especially at intersections where speed limits may vary and visibility can be reduced.
