Intersection Hazards in Oklahoma City’s Northwest Corridor
NW 12th St and N Meridian Ave is a key junction in Oklahoma City’s northwest sector, connecting both residential streets and commercial areas. The steady flow of traffic in multiple directions, combined with occasional speeding and driver inattention, makes this intersection particularly vulnerable to crashes.
The Oklahoma Highway Safety Office has reported that intersections like this—especially those without dedicated turn lanes or advanced signal control—experience a higher rate of injury collisions. Weekends can be especially risky, as more residents are on the move and traffic patterns fluctuate throughout the day.
For those injured in collisions at intersections like NW 12th and Meridian, the consequences often extend beyond physical harm. Victims may face ongoing medical treatment, transportation disruptions, and lost income from missed work. Preserving documentation, seeking immediate care, and understanding legal options are all essential steps in moving forward after such incidents.
