Car Accidents in New York
Busy intersections in areas like Greenwich Village are prone to vehicle collisions, particularly at locations where pedestrian traffic is heavy and multiple lanes converge. E 13th St and Broadway, a well-traveled section of Manhattan, sees a mix of cars, buses, cyclists, and pedestrians, increasing the risk of crashes.
Common causes of two-vehicle collisions include failure to yield, distracted driving, speeding, and improper lane changes. In highly congested areas, even a minor miscalculation can result in an accident that causes injuries and disrupts traffic flow.
For those involved in vehicle accidents, seeking medical attention is crucial, as injuries such as whiplash or concussions may not be immediately noticeable. Additionally, understanding legal rights can be essential for individuals facing medical expenses, lost wages, or other damages resulting from a crash.
