Intersections in busy Manhattan neighborhoods like Chelsea see constant activity from vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians, which increases the likelihood of collisions. Heavy traffic, frequent turns, and limited visibility from parked cars are common factors contributing to crashes in these areas.
When accidents occur in densely populated districts, they often require significant emergency response efforts and can create extended congestion. Drivers can reduce risks by slowing when approaching intersections, yielding to pedestrians, and avoiding distractions behind the wheel.
