Frequently Asked Questions
How does speed affect the severity of a crash like this?
Higher speeds give drivers less time to react and increase the force of impact, which usually means more serious injuries and more vehicle damage.
Why is distracted driving a factor in intersection crashes?
Drivers who are texting, eating, or otherwise not watching the road can miss traffic signals or oncoming vehicles, which is a common cause of collisions at intersections like this one.
What should someone do right after a two-vehicle crash?
Call 911, check for injuries, try to move to a safe location if possible, and make sure to exchange information with the other driver while waiting for police and medical crews to arrive.
