Evening Collisions in Little Rock
The crash at Berkshire Dr and S University Ave reflects a recurring trend in Little Rock—serious collisions happening during peak evening hours. Heavy commuter traffic, combined with the challenges of lane changes and busy intersections, often increases the likelihood of injury crashes along main thoroughfares like S University Ave.
Evening accidents are particularly dangerous because they occur at times when drivers may be fatigued or in a rush to reach their destinations.

Proper documentation, along with timely medical care, is critical to ensure both health and accountability in the aftermath.
