Urban Intersection Crashes in Oklahoma
Accidents like Wednesday’s collision at North May Avenue and Northwest 24th Street are not uncommon in Oklahoma City’s midtown neighborhoods, where intersections serve as busy connectors between residential streets and commercial corridors. These urban zones often see a mix of vehicle types—delivery vans, commuters, and local traffic—interacting within tight timing windows, especially during the midday rush.
