What Should Drivers Know About Intersection Safety?
Intersections require drivers to remain alert because vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists may approach from several directions. Motorists should slow down when approaching an intersection and pay attention to traffic signals, signs, and lane markings. Taking a moment to check for approaching traffic can help prevent collisions.
Drivers should also watch carefully for vehicles turning or entering the roadway from side streets. Maintaining a safe following distance can provide more time to react if traffic stops suddenly. Avoiding distractions, particularly cellphone use, can also improve a driver’s ability to respond.
After a crash, passing motorists should slow down and watch for emergency vehicles and people working near the roadway. Drivers should follow temporary traffic controls and avoid sudden lane changes around an active incident. Giving responders enough space can help keep the scene safer.
