Pre-Dawn Collisions in Fayette County
Crashes that occur during pre-dawn hours, like the one at E Reynolds Rd and Loch Ness Dr, tend to share several risk factors—most notably, reduced driver alertness and visibility. While traffic volumes are lower during these times, the risk of distraction, drowsiness, or misjudging roadway conditions increases significantly.
Neighborhood intersections like Loch Ness Dr are especially vulnerable during the early hours, when some drivers may assume roadways are clear and approach stops or merges too casually. Even low-speed impacts in these settings can lead to painful injuries such as whiplash, seatbelt trauma, or concussions—especially if vehicle occupants are caught off guard by a sudden collision.
To help reduce these early morning incidents, Lexington traffic officials urge residents to build extra time into their routines, ensure headlights are in use before dawn, and remain attentive through each residential and arterial transition.
