While injury crashes are unfortunately common in areas like Gastonia, incidents that involve emergency medical care followed by law enforcement action are less typical and often raise questions about underlying circumstances. Roadways such as Robinson Rd and Lakewood Rd, which serve both residential and commuter traffic, can become hotspots for unexpected collisions, especially during busy afternoon hours.
