Midday Collisions at Busy Intersections in Mesa
Friday’s crash at E Southern Ave and S Hall highlights the risks posed by collisions during afternoon hours on major urban roadways. Southern Avenue is a primary east-west route through Mesa, with frequent traffic signals, commercial access points, and multiple turning lanes—all of which create complex driving conditions prone to accidents.
Injury crashes in such areas often result from distracted driving, failure to yield during left turns, or rear-end impacts at red lights. Even low-to-moderate speed collisions can lead to significant injuries, particularly for drivers or passengers with pre-existing conditions or poor seatbelt use.
The impact on victims extends beyond the moment of the crash, often involving medical recovery, lost time at work, vehicle damage, and insurance disputes. Quick response by EMS helps ensure the best medical outcomes, but the process of full recovery may still take weeks or longer.
